- I have been trying to use a printer connected to a Sparcstation SLC through
- /dev/ttya. It is an HP DeskJet printer. Everything SEEMS to work fine, but
- when you print more than a couple of pages, data starts getting lost. I've
- tried every possible eeprom flow-control setting in "ttya-mode=". I've used
- termios ioctl()'s to alter the flow control settings of the port. Nothing
- seems to have any effect at all. The /etc/ttytab entry is set to "off local
- secure". HELP!
