Earl) Organization: Project Design Systems, Inc. Lines: 13 I have a Parallel<->Serial Converter II from Black Box Corp. I have a standard clone-type herc-compat monitor card with LPT1. When hooked to a standard parallel printer, it behaves beautifully. When hooked to the converter, it ignores the converter's attempts at flow control (hardware) and sends the whole job, thereby losing 2/3 of most jobs. Any recommendations? -- ============== Robert A.
