General

Control-V uses report printing parameters defined under the ON statements when PRINT/CDAM PARMS values are not specified. However, if specified, PRINT/CDAM PARMS override the original printing characteristics of the reports decollated under the ON statements.

Control-V retrieves the printing characteristics of the reports when the reports are read from the spool and moved to Compressed Dataset Access Method (CDAM) format.

When the reports are written directly to compressed datasets, the printing characteristics defined in parameter SUBSYS are kept. The printing characteristics are subsequently used when printing from the compressed sysout.
