Command Definition F-K
HEADOFF
HEADOFF
Stops header/trailer output to a device. (Native Mode)
Syntax
HEADOFF ldev
Parameters
ldev The logical device number of the printer affected by the command.
Operation Notes
Header and trailer information appears before and after a file when it is printed. This
information is not a part of the file's text. This information identifies the file by session
number, output spoolfile number, session name (if any), user, and account. It also lists the
date and time the file was printed.
If output is directed to a line printer, MPE/iX automatically prints header and trailer
pages identifying the job that produced the file.
If the device is in use and a header has already been printed when you issue the HEADOFF
command, your request to suppress header/trailer output takes effect after the
corresponding trailer is printed.
Use
This command may be issued from a session, job, program, or in BREAK. Pressing Break
has no effect on this command. It may be executed only from the console unless distributed
to users with the ALLOW or ASSOCIATE command.
Example
To stop header/trailer output to logical device number 6, enter:
HEADOFF 6
