Software: IBM i Access Client Solutions (ACS)
Actor: User wants same printing behavior as IBM i Access for Windows (CA/400)

Customer is using Printing session from CA/400 for printing *SCS spool files to Epson dot matrix printer. Since CA/400 does not support Windows 10 and it will be EOS on April 30, 2019. Customer needs to use ACS instead.

Description: Customer use the options in the printer session from CA/400 to control Fonts, size, CPI, LPI, margins and orientation. They put below keywords in .ws files
[printers]
Point=9,75,37
CPI=17
LPI=8
