Hi Managers,
I would like to thank the following for their quick response
to my question on How to setup a LAT printer.

Basically, the solution was to setup LAT devices using latsetup.
Or using makenod to create special device files.
Remove or edit entries in the inittab file, devices that are
to be used for printers.
Delete an existing Port (Optional)
latcp -D -p /dev/lat/nnn
To configure the LAT port/Device
latcp -A -p /dev/lat/nnnn -H SERVER -R PORT_N
I decided to take the entries out of inittab file.
Restart the init process
init q
Add the printer to printcap file, (Optional if you are using EaseSpool).
Check the port settings on the TERMINAL SERVER by doing the following
show port nn
set port nn access remote.
set port nn speed nnnn
test the port and printer.
Cheers
Ashok
