I have installed transcript 2.0 under SunOS4.0 for a Laserwriter Plus.
The printer is attached to a Sun 3/260 via a RS232 line from one of the
ttyports on the alm-2. It works ok for small files but jams on larger one
over 4 pages or so. THe yellow light on the printer double flashes. The
assumption is that the XON/XOFF is screwewd up and the printer is getting
overwhelmed. THings work fine with s NTXII laserwriter. Any ideas? Here is
the printcap we currently have:
