Unix Printing

In our set up we have PRINT Immediate turned on for all the reports as user wants the report straight away. Out of these reports some are normal reports and some are special reports to be handled by JETFORMS.

This type of handling is done by the Unix scripts.

In certain cases we need some reports not to be printed at all and this could be a combination of User/Report/Version.

Another case is for a particular user all the reports go to one printer and another report goes to another printer.

We can use *ALL for most of the fields while defining the default user printers.

My question is regarding the Default printers for users. In what sequence the table is read and the decision is made whcih printer the particular report need to be routed to.

Any sort of help will be highly appreciated
 
I've had this info saved off for quite a while, but I can't
remember where I got it - maybe from another tech,
I really can't recall. If you sent it to me, sorry for no
attribution.

1. Username, Environment, Hostname
2. Username, Environment, *ALL
3. Username, *ALL, Hostname
4. Username, *ALL, *ALL
5. *PUBLIC, Environment, Hostname
6. *PUBLIC, Environment, *ALL
7. *PUBLIC, *ALL, Hostname
8. *PUBLIC, *ALL, *ALL

In other words, from specific to general.
