You may now use the printer attached to the appropriate port on the
SpotLine M110 terminal.
For example:
lp -d LocalQName /etc/hosts
should print the file /etc/hosts on the printer referred to in LocalQName.
5.3 Other Unix Versions
The SpotLine family of terminals will also work equally well with other versions of
UNIX, such as those from DEC or Hewlett Packard systems.
5.3.1 Use as a Serial Terminal
It is recommended that you use the “Ansi/SCO” emulation mode for the
terminal. You can integrate the required termcap and terminfo
parameters from the files scoansi.tc and scoansi.ti available on the
www.SpotLine.com website.
The file scoansi.ti file needs to be compiled with your UNIX tic
program (Terminfo compiler) to create the necessary terminfo entries.
This compilation must take place under root level administration.
For example:
tic scoansi.ti
To use your SpotLine terminal with the standard UNIX utilities, it is
necessary to declare it as a n Ansi device in your environment variables,
or termcap and terminfo files.
