  Null print driver? (DQS NADRIVER) 
 The Question is:
 
mr wizard,
 
 At the moment we are using a vms compoent called the nadriver to permit the
use of the copy command to a fictious device which then points to a print
queue. (Also used by the print screen function of the 3270 terminal
emulator).
 My problem is this: We are now planinng to migrate our environment to ALPHA
where I am told that this driver is no longer available.
 Is there any other way to recreate this function and how dose the alpha
version of the printer emulator print screen function work.
 
 thanks for any help

 The Answer is:
 
  NADRIVER is part of the OpenVMS VAX DQS product.  The Software Product
  Description (SPD) is 28.80.xx; see http://www.digital.com/info/SP2880/
 
  One approach for similar purpose uses LAT, with a command sequence such
  as the following:
 
    $!
    $ RUN SYS$SYSTEM:LATCP
    CREATE PORT LTA998:  ! Make sure that these devices are NEVER
    CREATE PORT LTA999:  ! mapped to a server and port.
    EXIT
    $!
    $ SET DEVICE LTA998:/SPOOL DQS_CLIENT_1
    $ SET DEVICE LTA999:/SPOOL DQS_CLIENT_2
    $!
