	OOPS! The C-Mux can only do XON/XOFF when sending data out. It can't
do it on input. The 12005A cannot do XON/XOFF with any driver. So, the
recommended solution is to upgrade to the D-Mux. This can be done by ordering
HP part# 12040-67806. Also, you will need the latest software to use this
upgrade.
