You now need to establish a host-initiated connection. For 
example:

lcp -h tty05:BRN_310107:P1

7

Make the spool directory as shown in the following example:

cd /usr/spool
mkdir lp1
chown daemon lp1

Again substitute your actual printer name for 

lp1

.  

8

Print a file to verify the connection. For example, the following 
command prints the printcap file:

lpr -Plp1 /etc/printcap

lp1

 in this example must be replaced by your actual printer 

name. You may find that you get an error message Socket is 
already connected. If this happens, simply try printing again 
and the message should go away and the job should be printed. 
If you get any other message, double check your configuration.

If you have trouble printing, enter the 

lpstat -t

 command to 

get the status of the print job. If the job is hung in the queue, you 
may have a configuration problem: Refer to the Troubleshooting 
chapter of this user guide for further assistance.

Installation on Other Host Computers

Installation procedures differ somewhat for other DEC operating 
systems (e.g., RSTS/E and RSX-11M-PLUS). Refer to the 
appropriate DEC documentation for information on setting up LAT 
print queues on these systems.
