I have a LW+ (firmware 38.0) hooked up to a Sun through
the 25-pin serial interface, with the selector switch set
to 9600 (operating at 19200 baud).

Now, if I hook up a Mac to the Appletalk port (using
Phone-Net 2-wire adaptors), the yellow light flashes
when there is nothing being sent to the printer from
either source.  Printing via the serial line does seem
to work OK even so.

Does anyone know if this behavior is different with the
newer (47.0?) LW+ firmware?
