I am operating with Unix SVR4 from Consensys using my parallel adaptor
to connect to a TI microLaser.  My problem is that if I send a lot of
postscript output to the printer ( 20 to 30 % larger than the buffer
size) my printer drops some of the characters that are sent.  I have
a friend that has the newer microLaser and uses it with MS-DOS :-(
and he has the same problem.  I have three questions for netland:

1. Has anybody had this problem besides us?

2. Does anyone have a fix?

3. Does anyone _know_ why this happens so I can fix it myself?

Answers to any of the above questions will be appriciated greatly.
