This is getting interesting now and I have some good news. I hooked the
printer up to a real dos box that never had any other operating system
on it and used a file manager to print a file. This time, the file came
out legible with no garbage. So, I'm thinking printing with this kind
of printer using Linux will probably work only using cat filename
>/dev/lp0 and not using any of the other printing facilities. I could
be wrong about that but don't think so. I'll try later and get some
assistance finding out what happened.
It being a line printer, that would not surprise me. Besides,
dot-matrix graphics??? Eeew.
And *noisy*. 45 minutes of "zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt
zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt
zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt
zzzzzt zzzzzt zzzzzt" has been ruled "torture" by the Internation
Court of Human Rights.
