I have Minix 1.3 (640K PC) running (finally) except for the printer
driver. The printer works fine under DOS, but Minix doesn't seem to
know that the printer is connected. Every attempt to use it results
in :
printer out of paper
printer not on line
printer error
I have a Panasonic 1091 connected to the parallel port of a typical
XT clone. If anyone can offer help, it would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
