PRINT=destination

NOPRINT

PRINT=destination: specifies to print either to an external file or to a device. The value of destination can be SYS$PRINT (the default print queue); your current monitor, SYS$OUTPUT (the default output stream); or an OpenVMS pathname.
NOPRINT: specifies to print to SYS$OUTPUT.

Details

The PRINT= system option specifies the destination to which SAS output is written when executing SAS programs in modes other than the interactive windowing environment.

To send the procedure output to a printer queue other than the default printer, redefine the SYS$PRINT logical name to the queue that you want to use.

The PRINT= system option is valid in interactive line mode, noninteractive mode, and batch mode; it is ignored in the SAS windowing environment.
