[comp.sys.mac] red ryder over printer port

pzl@hjuxa.UUCP (Twisted Systems Inc.) (10/06/89)

When I attempt to use red ryder 9.4  over the printer port on
my cx, It doesn't seem to be able to connect to the printer port.
DTR doesn't raise, nor do I get any data going out to the port.
(yes, I did select printer port in the Terminal preferences)
The package does work over the modem port.

Is this a known problem?
Help!

9.4 is pretty old and I don't think it is even supported anymore (since the
release of 10.x).  I do know that v11 works just fine over the printer port
as that is the port that I'm currently using as I type this...  v11 should 
be available very soon.
