QMS-410 problems

I have been having problems getting a new QMS-410 printer
hooked up to our local SUN3/280 computer. The printer is actually
attached to an Annex II terminal server over the serial line.

I have used the QMS-810 for 3 years now by simplying setting
the baudrate to 9600 and selecting XON/XOFF protocol.
All postscript jobs get passed to the spooler that simply 
tacks on a CNTRL-D and fires the file to the printer.

After experimenting with the 410 for a few hours it seems
that batch mode does not work in quite the same manner.
(I have the serial port set to PS only mode).

Can anyone tell me the proper set up for postscript
only code over the serial port of the QMS-410?
