This is a known problem. It was discussed a while ago, and i seem to recall that thre was no general agreement on what should be done. I know that ST-Talk installs its own interrupt routine (thats how it avoids the garbage characters that the Mfp insists on spitting out whenever you do a Rsconf(), even after explicitly disabling the transmitter in the Tsr(bit 0). The way i worked around this problem in xmdm, was to install a large (32k ) buffer of my own using Iorec(). Since then the problem has never re-appeared. I use xmdm at full 9600 baud almost all of the time. Hope that helps. bammi PS: if you know how to stop the MFP from spitting those (3) characters, i would lve to know. Currently, in xmdm, i send three ^H's following a rsconf to get rid of them. Also, with the large rs232 buffer in place, i put flow control completely off, and have never lost a character at 9600 baud.
