LAT NETWORK CONFIGURATION 9 - 9

YL4US_FAX2800MFC4800-FM5.5

This will create 16 devices numbered sequentially. For example, it
will create

tty00

through

tty15

if you have not previously created

any terminal devices. To create an additional 16 devices, type:

MAKEDEV lta1

3

Edit the

/etc/ttys

file to add a line similar to the following for

each LAT connection:

tty05 "etc/getty std.9600" vt100 off nomodem
#LAT

(substitute your actual tty number in place of

tty05

).

4

Verify that you have created valid LAT tty devices with the
command:

file /dev/tty* | grep LAT

Valid LAT devices will have a "39" in the description that is
printed when this command is executed.

5

Edit the

/etc/printcap

file to define the printer. The following

is an example of an entry:

lp1|BRN1:\
:lp=/dev/tty05:\
:ts=BRN_310107:\
:op=P1:\
:fc#0177777:fs#023:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lp1:

lp1

in the example is the printer name; you may choose to replace

it with a name of your choice. Likewise,

BRN1

is a secondary name

that you may want to replace with your own designation. The

op

parameter is the port name (P1). You must change the

ts

parameter

to be the actual node name of your print server (the default node
name is

BRN_xxxxxx

, where

xxxxxx

is the last six digits of the

MAC address (Ethernet address)). You must also change the

tty05

entry in the

lp

parameter to be the actual tty port you are using. The

fc

and

fs

parameters should be entered exactly as shown above

since they are required for the output to be printed correctly.
