6: LAT Configuration
The EZWebCon configuration software is the easiest way to configure the MPS. The fol-
lowing sections cover print configuration methods for LAT hosts.
Note: The MPS needs an IP address before you can use EZWebCon. See
Setting the IP Address on page 4-1 for instructions.
LAT print queues can be created by printing to a port or printing to a service. Printing
directly to a port requires no MPS configuration.
Note: Printing directly to a port is the easiest method for printing to the
MPS. If you would like instructions for printing to a service, see the
Print Server Reference Manual located on the CD-ROM.
6.1 Printing Directly to a Port
1 Create a LAT application port that references the MPS port.
Figure 6-1: Creating LAT Application Port
2 Create and start a print queue that uses the LAT application port.
Figure 6-2: Creating and Starting Print Queue
3 Add the commands to the SYS$MANAGER:LAT$STARTUP.COM file so the
required LAT devices will be recreated after each host reboot.
Note: LAT terminal device characteristics may have to be changed to cor-
rectly print certain files. See your VMS documentation for more in-
formation.
4 Print to the queue.
