SUBJECT : Rprinter on PC/XT or 286 Machine
DATE : 6/12/90
FYI # : 061290jb
OS VERSION : All
GENERAL INFORMATION : Rrinter on a XT or 286 the customer needs to make sure
that the com or lpt is hardware driven not poll driven. Dos does polling and
therefore the printer would work under Dos but in Rprinter the printer would
show that it was printing but nothing would come out or it would take an hour
or more per page. Most PC or XT com or lpt ports are poll driven and therefor
will not work. But if replaced with hardware IRQ ports they will work.
