I used to do that a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.

The IBM would create the tape, and then the 3000 would read the tape and create invoices, using those big ?2680A? printers?

As for reading the tape we used FCOPY with the EBCDIC option and I believe the blocking factor must be known, but it's been awhile.

Is anybody reading IBM 3480 tapes into an HPUX or MPE box? I have a need
