CHAPTER 9 LAT NETWORK CONFIGURATION
9-7
DECprint Supervisor Configuration
Notes
If you want to use the Brother print server with the DECprint Supervisor
software, you must have the DCPS-Open option in order to support Brother
printers (you may also need to modify the DCPS device control modules and
queue setup to handle "unrecognized" printers). Do not use the SET SERVICE
RECEIVE command because bi-directional communications is required for
DCPS.
Operation of the print server under ULTRIX is similar in concept to VMS in that
you must create a LAT application port and associate a print queue with that port
(note that ULTRIX can alternatively be configured with TCP/IP as described in
Chapter 2). This procedure requires system manager privileges and is shown in
the following sections.
1. Verify that LAT is working. This can be done simply with a LAT-
compatible terminal server; by doing a SHOW NODE or SHOW
SERVICE command, you should see the name of your ULTRIX host
displayed. If you do not have a terminal server available, execute the
following command:
lcp -c
This command displays the LAT traffic on the network. You should minimally
see some number of frames transmitted because your ULTRIX computer
periodically broadcasts messages across the network. If LAT is not working, first
check your cabling and your network configuration. If LAT still does not work,
then you may need to install LAT into your system. This is a fairly complex
procedure that requires rebuilding your kernel; refer to your ULTRIX
documentation for information on this procedure.
2. If you have not already done so, create some LAT devices. This is done
by first changing your default directory to /dev and then use the
MAKEDEV command to create 16 LAT devices:
cd /dev
