The LAT application port. The name of this port is LTAxxx, where
"xxx" is any unused number (do a SHOW PORT command in the VMS
LATCP program to see the existing ports).
The print server node name and port name . The default node
name is BRO_xxxxxx, where "xxxxxx" is the last six digits of the
Ethernet address (for example, BRO_00C3E4). You can see the name
of your print server by printing out a configuration page:
To do this on a printer that has an LCD panel: take the printer off-
line by pressing the SEL button, press and hold down the SHIFT
button then press the UP arrow button until PRINT CONFIG is
displayed, press the SET button. The printer will then print out a
configuration sheet, the sheet labeled "Print Configuration"
contains all Print Server configuration information. Put the printer
back on-line again by pressing the SEL button.
For internal Print Servers that are connected to a Brother printer
which do not have an LCD panel, refer to your printer user guide
for instructions on how to print out a configuration page.
Brother's external interfaces, which connect to the parallel
interface, have a black button recessed into the rear of the unit.
Press this button to print out a configuration sheet.
Or with the SHOW SERVER command from the console. You can
also see this information if you have a HTTP connection to the
printer using the TCP/IP protocol. The port name is P1 for the
printer. As an alternative to the port name, you may use the
service name
(refer to Appendix B for information on how to use
services).
Note
If you wish to use a different node name, you must change the print
server name as described in Appendix A.
commands (alternatively, you may edit the file
LAT$SYSTARTUP.COM for VMS 5.5-x and later systems or
LTLOAD.COM for earlier VMS systems). For instance, the following
sample command file creates a queue named XJ on LAT port 33 for a
print server with a default node name of BRO_00C351 using the
LATSYM processor and the default VMS form:
$MCR LATCP
CREATE PORT LTA33:/APPLICATION
SET PORT LTA33:/NODE=BRO_00C351/PORT=P1
SHOW PORT LTA33:
EXIT
$SET TERM LTA33:/PASTHRU/TAB/NOBROADCAST-
/PERM
$SET DEVICE/SPOOL LTA33:
$INIT/QUEUE/START/ON=LTA33:/PROC=LATSYM XJ
