PUTPAGE

The PUTPAGE option specifies whether or not the form feed character should be followed by a carriage return character. This option only applies to printer-destined files. Printer-destined files are stream output files declared with the PRINT attribute, or record output files declared with the CTLASA environment option.

NOCR
Indicates that the form feed character ('0C'x) is not followed by a carriage return character ('0D'x). This is the default.
CR
