I have tried to plot a Lotus 123 graph using HP 7550 plotter. But
it seems I stucked with a feature with Lotus printgraph program: 
It insists that port #1 is parallel and port#2 is serial port. 
Since I am connecting HP plotter via a RS232 serial port with 9600 baud
rate, I choose port #2 in the /Configure/Interface manual. It turns out
that the system asking me to wait, and practically, my XT compatible 
hangs indefinitely and has to be reboot every time. Could any knowledgeble
people in the net make some suggestion? I have tried the MODE command
of DOS and  failed. I have tried to run other program which drives the 
same plotter, it works beutifully.

Thanks for any suggestions.
