Like telephoneguy said, the IPocket is the best way to go but that will take you into the IP setup and require some additional hardware. If you can easily connect to the console port that's the simplest and cheapest option to get SMDR quickly.

Form 11: Data Circuit Descriptor
Define a descriptor that matches your desired parameters speed, parity and stop bit
Form 12: Dataset Assignment

Assign the DSCONS to the console port like VAD60 suggested and give the port an available extension number

Form 34: Directed I/O
Direct SMDR to the port you created. Until you resolve the problem with the cabinet's printer port, I would remove SMDR from it.

Hope that helps.
