How does one do IO to the primary device when a device is spooled?
I thought it was by using qio's and logical (or physical) IO,
but I can't find anything re. this in the manuals.

Is there an alternative to setting a device spooled
that prevents the login sequence and broadcast messages?
(other that allocating the device).
