Printing with terminal–attached printers
Many asynchronous ASCII terminals have an auxiliary (AUX) port that can be used to
connect a printer. Terminal–attached printing is supported for terminals attached directly to a
host machine or attached remotely by modem to a host machine.
This section discusses configuration, maintenance, and problem determination for
terminal–attached printers, as well as the following topics:
• Supported hardware on page 2-18
• Installing a terminal–attached printer on page 2-20
• Configuring a printer for an ASCII display terminal on page 2-23
• Terminal–attached printing limitations on page 2-24
