Mark, 

We use an LC-890 in house, and also experienced the XON/XOFF problem.

NEC corrected the problem by replacing the motherboard.  We've had no
further problems with the printer (though our Sun3/50 only pushes it at
9600 baud).

I'll catch heck for this [:-)] but you might talk with Dean Ramburg
at the Bellevue, WA NEC office, (206) 451-0114.  He replaced the board,
and can probably convince your local people that it is in fact a problem
with the printer.

A plug for NEC: Because of the support we received from Dean, we'll buy from
NEC in the future.  Good support is (sadly) too hard to find.
