Your question is not very clear.
However, after you've printed something from SDSF, you should issue a PRINT CLOSE command.
Maybe that's missing?

If you are using PRINT-HI, you probably are not using SDSF 'print' command, which I recommend you to use.

With SDSF print command, you should use it to open the file, print the data, then close the file. See the online help for SDSF.

I 'm not printing any jobs into a dataset, i'm just printing the screen(st page)., so i dont know how to use the print close command in it.

The PRINT-HI command is an ISPF command, thus printing the data into ISPF's LIST dataset. Try the command LIST to copy it's content.
