Note that a specific 3270 LU or Asynchronous ASCII Host port may be assigned to multiple
device ports. This may be useful if someone has two terminals (one at his/her desk and one
somewhere else) and needs the same Host Assignments at each location. By powering off one
terminal, the host resources will be made available for the other terminal, if the Power Off
Action field in the Device Profile/Host Assignments panel is set to Disconnect All Sessions.

The printer field defines which printers will be assigned to which displays. LINCS initially
assigns None as the default. By pressing the Default key (PF9) new default values are defined
based on your configuration, which you can change by redefining the Printer field. The printer
assignment will take effect immediately (if specified when saving the configuration), and
upon each IML of the LINCS node.
Note that any display which has printer class access, or dynamic access to printers can modify
the display’s printer assignment using Printer Ident Mode. New print ids will be maintained
when a display powers on and off. When LINCS is IMLed, the printer assignments for all
ports will be set to the configured values.
This panel will only be displayed if local or shared printers have been defined on the Device
Profile Assignments panel.
