First, forgive me for not really knowing what I'm talking about here.
I got thrown into the middle of a support issue at my new job. The old
"unix guy" blew off a bunch of cases and they landed in my lap.
Unfortunately I am not really a Unix guy so I'm not even sure where to
go next.

I have a client running SCO Openserver 5.x who can not print. That's
easy enough, the printer is setup on /dev/ttya08, which is actually a
Wyse terminal.

I was left with the notes that the printer is connected to channel 3
on the mux and that I should check the baud rate. I have no idea what
to do with this info.

What does channel 3 mean to me as far as figuring out which device the
printer is actually using? I have no mux documentation. It's a
Multitech 428. Can't even find this mux at Multitech's web site, much
less any info that might answer the question any similar. Thanks for
any help or pointers you can offer.
