The MC-5 had a bug introduced in the firmware, I believe at release 2.03
that caused the printer output to be fired back down the regular serial
port rather than to the parallel printer port when in vt220 emulations.
It would print OK in wyse60.

The best bet is to get firmware updates from Link (current version is
2.05 or 2.06 may be out to the public now).

To chech your firmware press ctrl and shift simultaneously and it will
appear on the status line.
