To use the TROY XCD print server with a VMS host computer, you will first need to create a LAT application port on the host. A LAT application port allows a program to send and receive data over a LAT connection as if it were communicating with a
VMS LAT Host Configuration
The configuration process requires that you have system manager privileges. Before beginning the LAT configura- tion process, you must first make sure that LAT has been started on your system. If you are currently using terminal servers on your network, then LAT has probably already been activated. If LAT is not started, then you need to execute the following command before proceeding with configuration of the TROY XCD print server:
@SYS$STARTUP:LAT$STARTUP
1.Before creating print queue, you will need to determine the following:
•The VMS queue name. This can be any unique name (do a SHOW QUEUE command at the VMS prompt to list the existing queues).
•The LAT application port. This 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 TROY XCD print server node name and port name . The default node name is XCD_xxxxxx, where "xxxxxx" is the last six digits
