ACS APW print support

Printer session of IBM i Access Client Solutions does not support APW forms with bar codes and ruled lines.

The client has many kinds of printers so they cannot use PDT or HPT. Therefore, the client requires the enhancement of Java printing service to print APW forms with bar codes and ruled lines. This function is supported by PCOMM printer session and the client expect ACS support this function as well.


Use Case:

1. Create ACS printer session (APWOUTQ)
2. Choose Java printer service in page setting
3. Create APW spool file with bar code
4. Change OUTQ to APWOUTQ
5. Confirm the form includes bar code
