Sorry about this novice question, but...

I've got a serial printer connected to COM2.  Using Kermit 3.00, I can
talk back and forth.  However, I can't get DOS to do anything.  I have
used the MODE command to set up the port properly, but PRINTing gives
me a message about being offline, and TYPE [FILE] > COM2 just hangs.
Any suggestions?
