hej, I'm running debian 2.2r3 on a PowerMac 7300, and am trying to get an Apple LaserWriter Select 310 running on the serial port.
So far (after several freeze-up, kernel-compiles and lots of time), the state is as follows: - the serial port on the mac works (tested with a modem) - the printer works (using the parallel interface from an intel PC) - any output like 'echo "hello printer" >/dev/ttyS0"' to the serial port does not seem to arrive at the printer (the LEDs should blink when receiving data, but they insist on constant-glare(tm)) thus, I suspect that either the serial interface of the printer is broken or that I've mis-initialized the serial port on the mac. thus, if anyone has any clues on how to setup the serial port (flow control, speed, whatever), has a working printcap or anything, please help. thanks, bye Philipp Kaeser / [EMAIL PROTECTED]
