I am using COM1: as my printer port by redirecting LPT1: to COM1:
with the `mode' command. The printer I am using is a Printronix
300 with a serial interface. My problem, the printer uses
XON/XOFF to control flow but the `PRINT' command on the IBM does not use
XON/XOFF. I am currently using a terminal emulator that can send
text files with flow control but would like to print my files
with a background process like `PRINT'. Anybody got any suggestions?
