Original Question:

> I have these two old 5500's running 4.3 and they have line printers
> configured as console, as well as a monitor.  How do I turn off the
> printers as console?  The problem is, when the paper is out, the 5500's
> won't boot

Answer from both alan@nabeth.cxo.dec.com and schwarz@physik.tu-berlin.de:

It's in the terminal program, not Ultrix.

Which turned out to be correct.  I had just never laid eyes on a vt320
before (these machines are remote to me).

thanks
