In fact I have done so, the only problem is that i don't know how to tell lpd/lpr (?, or whatever) to use cs8, - istrip and -parenb. I can cat to /dev/com2 after having done the stty (stty -f /dev/com2 cs8 -strip -parenb) and everything is ok. But when i use lpr, the output is corrupted. Is there an easy way to solve this? Or should I use the lpt-patches? **********************************************************************;-)****** Folker Meyer /* in real life*/ folker@guphx2.uni-bielefeld.de /* most of the time*/ Microsoft, the company that brought us EDLIN. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Folker Meyer * "God is real, Universitaet Bielefeld * unless declared integer."
