- Hi,
-
- I just bought a new printer that has a built in 48K buffer. This
- is great, except that the friendly Amiga goes off, fills up the buffer, and
- then has to wait for awhile before the printer will accept more data (I
- think the printer waits until a couple K is free again or something). This
- makes the Amiga unhappy, and it's constantly putting up those silly
- "Printer Trouble -- Check Wiring, Paper, etc." requestors.
-
- So how do I tell the Amiga to wait forever for the printer?
-
- Thanks...
