Change the Configuration of LPI in Java Print (jpsDBCSUseSplfLPI)

Need change LPI of Spool file, set the "jpsDBCSUseSplfLPI" on acssm.ini. But only some printer session need this setting. Others doesn't need this setting because output is broken.

So want the setting "jpsDBCSUseSplfLPI" in each hod files.

    Beginning with ACS version 1.1.9.5, support has been added so that jpsDBCSUseSplfLPI can be manually added to the HostPrintTerminal section of the .hod file (with a value of true or false). If the property is set in the hod file, it will control the LPI behavior for that specific JPS-based printer session. If the property is not present, the LPI behavior for that specific JPS-based printer session will be determined by the global setting.

    We appreciate the suggested enhancement. However, without providing the additional information requested, we are not able to evaluate if an enhancement is needed or if there is some other issue. So at this time, we will not be providing the requested enhancement.

    Thank you for submitting your Idea to enhance IBM i Access Client Solutions (ACS). To help us investigate this request, we need some spool files that work with jpsDBCSUseSplfLPI and some that do not work with jpsDBCSUseSplfLPI. Please open a case with IBM Service and provide the requested spool files to IBM Service. Let them know they were requested by IBM Development. When you have done that, please add the Case number to this Idea.
