SUMMARY
Occasionally, it may be beneficial to use a blank Printer Definition Table (PDT) for print problems with SNA Server. If you specify PDT_INTERNAL_BLANK for the PDT file name in the Override section of the SNA print session properties, a blank PDT will be generated and used for the SNA print session.



MORE INFORMATION
This option was designed to work with AS/400 print sessions using Host Print Transform (HPT) but can also be used for 3270 print sessions. It should have the effect of telling the SNA Print Server that it should use the transparent printer interface, but won't result in any unwanted PCL sequences being sent to the printer. A blank PDF file is generic to all printers.
