Frank : > This sounds to me like a buffer overflow, which could well be the one inside the printer. I have seen it over and over in UNIX environments whereby a serial printer was used, the communication protocol was set to XON/XOFF and the cable/connector used was configured for Hardware handshake, e.g. had all pins wired up. e.g. pins 2,3,4,5,6,7, 8 and 20 have little wires poked in them. So, if you use a serial printer .... <
I agree ... but I use a parallel cable. So, I don't think buffer overflow can happen in this case. Thanks anyway for trying to help. J.M. GRATIAS, Logimatique
