  I am having problems printing to my laser printer.  If I connect my laser
printer to my computer and try to print something, nothing happens.  If I do
lpq, it tells my printer is off line.  No it I connect my dot martix printer
to the same port, it works.  The laser printer works on this port from DOS.
Can anyone help me out?
