One day about a year ago someone posted a detailed message here about
how to get a LA50 to work on an IBM-type computer.  I didn't pay much
attention then, not owning an LA50.  But now I'm trying to get WordPerfect
5.1 to run the LA50 aand it doesn't seem to work.  Yes, I know it's a
serial printer but that doesn't seem to be enough.  Is there a way
not only to get it to print from within WP 5.1 on an IBM but also to
send the various codes for things like underlining and letter quality?

Thanks!

Chaim
