Here you must specify to which port the printer is attached. If the printer is connected to a serial, parallel or SCSI port of one of the hosts, you must specify the device file belonging to this port (the format is, for example,

/dev/term/tty001 or /dev/term/tty002 for serial,/dev/lp0 or /dev/lp1 for parallel, and /dev/io0/sprin022 for SCSI ports).

If the printer to be configured is a LAN printer with its own network adapter card which is connected via a terminal server or via a PC to the software Wprint (or SPPCS), the address consists of an Internet address (or the corresponding host name from the file /etc/hosts) and a port number. In this case, the format of the printer address is, for example, 139.23.124.37 7001.

For details on the Internet address and the port number refer to the documentation and current configuration data of the LAN printer, the terminal server or the software Wprint (SPPCS), depending on how the LAN printer is connected to the network.

Enter the address and confirm with "Enter".
