Isn't PSF a component of InfoPrint? Do you need PMF to build libraries?

External Message: Use Caution


One place I worked got one.  It was quite large, fast, and used TCP/IP.  We did 
not have PSF and used InfoPrint to send stuff to it from JES2.  Worked great 
for large print jobs.  With InfoPrint we could send control commands, like two 
sided printing, etc.

BTW.. With InfoPrint, every printer in the company with an IP address was 
connectable to z/OS JES2.  NetSpool intercepted CICS print also,
