  57.         The TSO PRINTOFF command now has an option called FORMS.  Use it
  58.     to specify the format in which you would like to have your output           
  59.     printed (on the laser printer).  Here is an example:
  60.                                                                                 
  61.         PRINTOFF mydataset FORMS(F610)                                          
  62.                                                                                 
  63.         See the memo SYS.MVS.UPDATE(FORMS) for a list of available format       
  64.     numbers.  If you do not specify a forms number, a default of STD or PR
  65.     will be used.  If FORMS is specified along with a remote printer
  66.     destination (e.g., DEST(RMT1)), the FORMS option will be ignored.
  67.  
  68.         Your laser printer output will automatically be placed in your          
  69.     bin.  You can find your bin number by issuing the TSO BIN command.

  76.       The PRINTJOB command lets you send your held job output to a              
  77.       printer.  It is similar to the =3.8 Outlist Utility option P.  You        
  78.       specify a jobname and a jobid if necessary, and PRINTJOB puts the         
  79.       job output into a temporary data set, prints the data set, then           
  80.       deletes the data set.  The one main difference is in the                  
  81.       specification of numbers of copies.  PRINTJOB has a COPIES                
  82.       parameter on the IEBGENER SYSUT2 DD statement, so if you specify          
  83.       multiple copies, they will all be under a single banner page.
