IBM M110 manual Enter a local queue name, Enter the device name for the SpotLine in /etc/hosts

No setup is required on an AIX host to support a SpotLine M110 terminal as a network terminal running a Telnet session. However, your system administrator may wish to include the terminals in the hosts file, mostly to keep track of terminal names and IP addresses. This will also allow any host operator to easily “ping” the terminal to see if it is working.

Use of the SpotLine’s print capabilities (when running as a LAN device)

NOTE: You must first add the SpotLine to the /etc/hosts file before it can be used as print spooler device.

To use the printer(s) attached to a SpotLine M110 as a system wide printer, proceed as follows:

Run smit

Select --> spooler

--> Manage Remote Printer --> Client Services
