OK, I just caught the aforementioned article before asking the net if anyone
knew about a printer problem.  I'm using a Star-Gemini Proprinter (LQ), to
print invoices and am embarrassed by a certain no. of spelling mistakes
introduced by my printer (it was working fine under MS-DOS).  I have briefly
looked at the printer code (minix version 1.2), but can see nothing wrong...
It looks as though the driver is not seeing the "BUSY" soon enough.  I would
appreciate it if someone would keep me informed as to what's going on.  I
haven't seen any news before <1317@ast.cs.vu.nl>.  Basically, the printer
is just missing characters.  I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one with
this problem - I won't have to do *all* the work...
