DISCLAIMER: If the problem has already been reported, sorry.

I have two serial devices hooked to my Mac 512Ke: a modem, and another
RS-232-cabled interface.  The second peripheral is hooked to the printer
port.  Upon each power-up of my machine, when I run Red Ryder 9.4, I can't
access the printer port.  I have no problems with the modem port; and the only
way I've found to get the printer port to work is to use another term.
program (like the MacTerminal DA) to access the port.  Once it's initialized,
Red works fine.

If anyone has any suggestions, could you please e-mail me? (I don't read
this group on a regular basis).

Thanks very much,
