You may be having some problem due to the fact that the Quadram II
(the board with two RS-232 ports) does NOT work identically to the IBM
asynch. boards.  Someone here bought about 20 of the boards, only to
find that they wouldn't work with one of their printers.  Even with
one serial port enabled and configured just like the IBM port had
been, the system would hang when trying to print.  Disab- ling both
Quadram ports and using the IBM board would work OK.

After much back and forth, Quadram admitted that the above is true.  I
haven't heard yet what, if anything, Quadram plans to do on this.
