Does anyone know of a patch to Word (im)Perfect 4.2 which will
enable hardware flow control (as opposed to xon-xoff) ? I'm using
an Epson LQ800 printer which doesn't want any part of xon-xoff.
I've enabled dtr on the printer port (via prndtr and setport), but
apparently WP takes control of the port when you print a document,
as this set up is ignored. I can print at 300 baud, but what fun is
that ?
