I've recently purchased a Televideo TS800A terminal.  It was origionally a
user station hooked up to some Televieo processor unit of that name.  But,
according to the manual it has all the capabilities of a 950 terminal so I use
it as such, the termcap works great and all.  But, I am unable to use teh
printer port on it.  The manual states "The print functions which are normally
available on a Model 950 terminal (such as ESC P, ESC L, ... ...)do not
function on the TS800A.  All print functions on the TS800A are controlled by
the computer."

Well, now.  IS this true?  Or is there a way I can have the proper signals
sent to the term by the system I'm logged into by modem?

Help!?

Joe
