Overview—Printing Host Data

Topics in this Help book describe how you can print and log host data. Depending on the print option you select on the File menu or in the Print folder of the Session Profile dialog box, you can do any of the following:

Print the contents of single or multiple display session screens.
Print data contained in a defined area of single or multiple display session screens.
Capture screens or screen areas and save the data to a file, which you can then print. Depending on the host system, you can capture session activity panel by panel or as one long file.

Associate a printer session profile with a display session profile (3270 and 5250). When you connect to a host using the display session profile, the printer session profile starts automatically and prints the data.

Note:

You can also print data using HostExplorer Print Services to any LAN printer on your enterprise network, provided that the host is running a version of TCP/IP that supports the TN3270E and TN5250E protocols. To use the HostExplorer Print Services product, you must install it separately from the HostExplorer product.
