LU1-SCS mode is utilized when neither PSF support nor IPDS
is required to accomplish the print function desired. An existing local

LU1-IPDS capable printer.
LOC3174V BUILD TYPE=LOCAL
LOCPU74 PU CUADDR=nnn...
LOC6500 LU
LOCADDR=n,MODETAB=MYMODETB,DLOGMODE=6500SCSL,ISTATUS=ACTIVE
The following entry should be placed in the VTAM MODE TABLE
specified above or another of your choice.
An
application program must provide the SCS commands to control the printer.
CICS, VPS, and other applications support SCS as well as numerous application
