: DEVICE=C:\OS2\COM.SYS (3,3E8,7)
: DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VCOM.SYS (3,3E8,7)

Whew, you scared me there for a moment.  My lpt1 is jumpered for irq5 and
my heart sunk but I hit print screen to see and lo and behold my deskjet
is printing the prettiest graphics rendition of this window I could want
at one swipe every 30 seconds. (.023 ppm)  I really only wanted the text
but hey.  I wonder if I am seeing some subtle irq problem but my modem is
working just fine.  Are the print drivers really that slow for graphics?
