- IOPAR has a number for receive-pacing and a number for
- transmit-pacing. The manual says that receive-pacing
- sends XOFF when the buffer is full. It also says that
- transmit-pacing stops transmission if XOFF is received.
- (with non-zero value in IOPAR of course)
-
- I understand that the IR printer uses XOFF when its buffer
- is full.
-
- I have tried to use XOFF using XMIT and SRECV but it does
- not seem to work. I was using IR trying to send a large
- string from on HP to another. Apperantly I do not know
- how XOFF works.
-
- Is there someone that could show me how to send a string
- from one HP to another using the XOFF signal?
-
- "user", "system" RPL , or machine language are all okay.
- Any method is fine, but as uasual speed and size are important.
-
- email kirkland@ee.utah.edu

- thanks

- PS:
- Any help would be greatly apprecaited and credit will be given
- in my new super-fast IR data transfer program.
- Currently it is at least twice as fast as any other I have used,
- and more than four times as fast as the built in SEND program.
- (TSEND is about 1.6 to 1.8 times as fast as SEND in actual time.)
