i am fairly new at the serial aspect but the need arouse for me to explore it. i really could use some assistance or guidance on how to communicate with a device that i connect to the serial port of the handheld. i am attempting to communicate through the serial port to a device (msr & printer). i have two routes i am attempting to take with communicating with it, 1) the printcap, but it is probably out of date so i attempted to find an update on the website ref'ed from the docs but was unsucessful. where can i find the updated print cap?? 2) so i am attempting to open the serial port and send messages. but it doesn't seem to work this way. it does know i'm sending it instructions because it spits out garble on the printer, and the msr light blinks, but doesn't stay on or complete what its doing. what steps do i take to send params i construct in a string to the unit through the serial port. do i use serial port manger or the new serial port manager? help appriciated =) Charles Rezsonya -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palm.com/devzone/mailinglists.html
