Q:                                                                              
ABSTRACT:     Which PSF/AIX manual contains operator commands that              
              are similar to JES functions like backspace, etc?

              PSF/AIX                                                           
..                                                                              
My customer asked my what commands on PSF/AIX are similar to JES                
functions like backspace, forward space, pause, drain, etc. I know              
that PSF/AIX has many more JES-like commands than PSF/2, but I don't            
know which manual to print for them to let them read about these                
operator functions.  Can you direct me to the correct manual?                   
                                                                                
A:                                                                              
There is a "PSF for AIX: Guide for Printer and COM Operators",                 
S544-5286.  It is intended for customers running the Production                 
Print Operator Interface (the set-up of which is described in                   
"PSF for AIX: Print Administration", S544-3817, page 52 in the -03              
level).  This interface restricts access to the AIX system, but                 
enables the operator to submit print jobs to PSF for AIX and to                 
perform job-management functions for those jobs.  It is very                    
similar to the "smit psf_main" panel, with the additional item                  
of "Look Up a PSF for AIX Message" and the omission of "Administer              
PSF for AIX" (which leads to adding/removing printers, customizing              
Input Manager, etc.--most of which you don't want the casual operator           
to do).                                                                         
                                                                                
Otherwise, the print management commands are documented in the                  
Print Submission book, S544-3878.                                               
                                                                               
I hope that helps.
