1047.0. "Problem on printing to LA75 under Calcomat II" by MALTEX::TESSIER () Mon Jan 07 1991 05:56

I am unable to print any table or file under Calcomat II with my LA75 on
the serial port. Of course I have correctly sat and connected it with the
desktop.

  Is ther a special driver for printing on the serial port ? I have many

programs which do not recognize serial printers why ? I ther something 
wrong ?

    A simple solution to your problem is BARREL.
    BARREL captures any data sent to the parallel printer-port
    and saves it as a file. Then it's possible to do a ordinary printout
    via desktop to the serial-port.
    
    It's not fancy at all, but it works!
    (I don't remember the file-pointer, but BARREL exists in several PD-
    libraries. Check note 9.*)
