How is the "print" done?
Through a regular queue with LATSYM?
Setup a new queue using telnet (or whatever)?

If you are printing directly to the LAT device, you
might have to setup an extra spool queue with
a LTA device name as queue name and assign that
queue to the executor tcpip print queue.

You so not need any terminal server at all.
