The IBM 6400 printer we are trying to setup is connected to the LAN thru a
Micronet SP760 print server (parallel connection) on LPT1. 
I tried changing the port 9100 but we get an error on the IP address/port.
I also tried the suggestions below and I got the following errors.

Subject: Re: Problem with Printer Definition setup by a newbie to i5
Jack mentioned changing the port to 9100.  Our 6400 is set to Workstation
Customization Object = *NONE, and System Drive Program = *IBMSNMPDRV. I'm
not sure what you'll get trying to use  HPPJLDRV.

We have an IBM 6400 line printer attached to a print server that we
currently use to print from our VSE system via TCP/IP LPR.
I have attempted to try and define a Printer device description on an i5
(see device description below) but I am not able to print.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
