It's an oblique way of telling you that if you use OUTFIL reporting features you need an A in your RECFM for the output, because a printer-control character is inserted before the first position of each record.
Now, you don't actually want that. You'd like those Control Characters to not be there. So on the OUTFIL, you specify REMOVECC, and they won't be there.
Please use the Code tags, not the Quote tags, for marking-up anything which needs to retain proportional spacing.
