DTR protocol for printers?

Is there anyway to get standard DTR printer protocol to work on a Sun-4
(with SunOS 4.0).  We've tried both terminal lines as well as the ttyb
line on the back of the CPU board.  We would like to use the ttyb line
since its not being used for anything else.  We need DTR protocol since
the printer is being shared on a printer-sharing box that requires DTR
protocol for flow control.

If anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.
