Yes indeed, there is a bug in the 1000SL MODE command.  As with all of my
postings, this information can be obtained by contacting Radio Shack
Customer Service (If they don't know the answer, they can usually find it).

MODE LPT1:Anything hangs up the system.  This bug is patchable ----

At least a million pardons are begged, but the above should fix you up.
This is being fixed on all later DOS releases.

The above information is being provided by me, and is subject to my personal
knack for getting things not quite right.  Tandy is nice enough to employ me,
but they aren't responsible for what I post here.
