Associate printer with session
You can associate a 3270 printer session with a 3270 display session. Make sure the
association has been correctly configured at the Telnet server.
Choose a printer from the pull-down list, which includes printer sessions that are configured for this user.
If an SLP-enabled display session is configured with an associated printer, regardless of whether or not the printer session is configured for SLP, an associated printer session is started with the Telnet server found for the display session.
If a printer session contains a destination address but no LU name and the session is started independently of the display session, Z and I Emulator for Web attempts to create an associated printer session with an active display session going to the same destination address.
Close printer with session
If Yes is selected, the display session controls whether the printer session is connected
or disconnected. The menu options to connect or disconnect are disabled in the
printer session. When the display session is disconnected, the printer session is
disconnected. When the display session is connected, the printer session is
connected. The printer window is closed when the display session window is closed.
The printer window can also be closed independently, but the display window must be
closed and restarted to restart the printer session.
When Yes is selected, the Session Inactivity Timeout for the printer session is ignored. When the display session times out, both the display and printer sessions are disconnected. If there is a job printing, the display and printer sessions are not disconnected until the print job completes.
When this option is set to Yes, the settings for the Auto-Connect and Auto-Reconnect on the printer session are derived from the associated display session, regardless of their configuration in the printer session. If Auto-Reconnect is set to No and the display session is disconnected by the Telnet server or because of a network problem, the printer session will also be disconnected. If Auto-Reconnect is set to Yes and the display session is disconnected by the Telnet server or because of a network problem, the printer session will remain connected until the display session is reconnected. If the display session LU is not associated with the running printer session LU, the printer session will be disconnected and reconnected to the display's associated printer LU.
It is recommended that you set this to Yes if the Telnet server is configured to use pooled associated LUs to ensure the printer and display LUs remain in sync.
This option is enabled only when an Associated Printer Session is selected. The default is No, enabling the printer session to be connected or disconnected independently of its associated display session.

Users can not change values for most fields because the fields are unavailable. However,
functions accessed from the session menu bar or tool bar can be changed.
