Modifying serial printers device

Well, that def changed the dev to /dev/ttyr014 (verified with a lpstat -s). I will have to verify that it is going to the correct printer tomorrow when I get back in the office. NOW, can you tell me what I missed when trying to do that manually? What file did scoadmin change?
The reason I need to know is because not all of the printers that I am planning on changing are Local. scoadmin will not let you change dev's on remote printers... unless you find the file and change it with vi.

Well, even after using scoadmin to make the tty change, it still prints to the wrong tty. Do I need to do a lpshut -> lpstart?

Nevermind lpshut, lpsched did not help.

***SOLVED***
PREVIOUS admin had labeled the RIO's backwards so sticker port 8 was actually port 1... etc...
Thanks for help.
BTW, you can edit the files manually. You just have to do a lpstop , lpsched after.
