Printing from mainframes to RPM?

Question:

Can I print from IBM OS/390 to RPM running on a Windows platform?

Answer:

We have a number of clients using RPM to receive print jobs from OS/390. IBM mainframes support telnet printing natively. If you have detailed information about telnet printing to RPM from a mainframe, please contact technical support.

Using LPR/LPD printing requires additional software. IBM's IP Printway can print to RPM. VPS is another LPR/LPD print client available for mainframes. This product is made by Levi, Ray, and Shoup. Please contact technical support if you have detailed information for configuring either VPS or IP Printway.
