Parameters

queue-name

Required parameter specifying the name of a printer queue to use for printing mail messages.

Description

The SET QUEUE command specifies the "default" print queue to submit print jobs to. This default queue will only be selected when the PRINT command is issued without the /QUEUE qualifier.

If you do not select a print queue, or have issued the command SET NOQUEUE, printed messages will be queued to SYS$PRINT. Again, this may be overridden with the /QUEUE qualifier of the PRINT command.

Contact your system manager or use the DCL command SHOW QUEUE to determine the print queues which you may use to print mail messages.


Examples

In the following example, the SET QUEUE command is used to select the printer queue PS_PRT as the default printer queue.


EMAIL> SET QUEUE PS_PRT
EMAIL> PRINT
EMAIL> PRINT/NOW
Job MAIL_01GV3OSEH9QQ8WW845_PRINT (queue PS_PRT, entry 800) started on PS_PRT 
EMAIL>
