[comp.os.vms] decserver200 question

TRIN7@TRINCC.BITNET (05/29/87)

Hello to all on the network,

I have a question about setting up remote printers off of a decserver 200/mc.
I have successfully set up a remote printer port for a laser printer.  I want
to set up a port for a LA120.  The manuals give guidelines and examples
which i have followed, but nothing has helped.  What happens is that the
job is entered into the queue with the status "starting" and then after a
few seconds the queue stops and the job goes into a pending state.  I thought
it was possible that I set up the ports or the latcp protocol stuff wrong.
but i set up the same ports and latcp info on our decserver 100 and there
was no problem at all.  I suspect that because the decserver 200/mc
features modem control that I am not seeing something i should be aware of.

Has anyone else had this problem?  I would appreciate any info.  Please send
replies directly to my bitnet account.  Thanks,
