VMS Help  —  START  /QUEUE  Qualifiers  /DEFAULT
       /DEFAULT=(option[,...])
       /NODEFAULT

    Establishes defaults for certain options of the PRINT command.
    Defaults are specified by the list of options. If you specify
    only one option, you can omit the parentheses. After you set an
    option for the queue with the /DEFAULT qualifier, you do not have
    to specify that option in your PRINT commands. If you do specify
    these options in your PRINT command, the values specified with
    the PRINT command override the values established for the queue
    with the /DEFAULT qualifier.

    You cannot use the /DEFAULT qualifier with the /GENERIC
    qualifier.

    Possible options are as follows:

    [NO]BURST[=keyword]    Controls whether two file flag pages with
                           a burst bar between them are printed
                           preceding output. If you specify the
                           value ALL (default), these flag pages
                           are printed before each file in the job.
                           If you specify the value ONE, these flag
                           pages are printed once before the first
                           file in the job.

    [NO]FEED               Specifies whether a form feed is inserted
                           automatically at the end of a page.

    [NO]FLAG[=keyword]     Controls whether a file flag page is
                           printed preceding output. If you specify
                           the value ALL (default), a flag page is
                           printed before each file in the job. If
                           you specify the value ONE, a flag page is
                           printed once before the first file in the
                           job.

    FORM=type              Specifies the default form for an output
                           execution queue. If a job is submitted
                           without an explicit form definition, this
                           form is used to process the job. If no
                           form type is explicitly specified with
                           the FORM keyword, the system assigns the
                           form "DEFAULT" to the queue. See also
                           the description of the /FORM_MOUNTED
                           qualifier.

    [NO]TRAILER[=keyword]  Controls whether a file trailer page is
                           printed following output. If you specify
                           the value ALL (default), a trailer page
                           is printed after each file in the job. If
                           you specify the value ONE, a trailer page
                           is printed once after the last file in the
                           job.

    When you specify the BURST option for a file, the [NO]FLAG option
    does not add or subtract a flag page from the two flag pages that
    are printed preceding the file. For information on establishing
    mandatory queue options, see the description of the /SEPARATE
    qualifier. For more information on specifying default queue
    options, see the VSI OpenVMS System Manager's Manual.
