    Hi,
    
    	I have a customer that is running UCX 4.0ECO 3 and 
    would like to have a Telnet print queue associated with 
    a TN port. We have done the following:
    
    	$ telnet /create_session hostname 2008 99
    	$ init/queu/start/proc=ucx$telnetsym/on=tna99: pq
    	%system-f-ivdevnam, invalid device name
    
    	We can copy files to TNA99: without any problems. Can 
    a telnet printer queue be setup this way? If so, how?
    
    
    Thanks,
    
    Mike

|     Mike,
    
    Outbound TNA devices are not ready yet for printing as they cannot be
    spooled.  Have your customer create a dummy lta device and then
    associate the telnetsym to this device.
    
                $ mc latcp create port LTAnn:
                $ set device/spool=(yourtelnetsymquename, sys$sysdevice:) LTAnn:
                $ copy tobeprinted.stuff LTAnn:

| If an outbound TN device is to be used for printing, you would not be using the telnet symbiont but probably the ordinary VMS print symbiont. Oswald | |||||

|     Agreed.
    
    The TELNETSYM is intended to create an outgoing (socket-based)
    connection to a remote printer.  The TN approach is different and
    doesn't mix and match with TELNETSYM.
    
    A future release of UCX will include a really nice TN interface.
