Summary - HPIII on an IPC
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The concensus was :
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
The HPIII set as follows
auto cont=on, I/O=serial, serial=RS232, baud=9600, robust=on
dtr polarity=Hi, ret=medium, page protect=ltr
The printcap entry as follows
lp|lp1|1|hp1|Laser Jet 3:\
:pw#80:\
:lp=/dev/ttyb:\
:br#9600:\
:ms=pass8,-crtscts,onlcr,ixon,ixoff,-opost:\
:of=/usr/local/bin/hplaser:\
:sd=/var/spool/lp:\
:mx#0:\
:lf=/var/adm/lpd-errs:
The cable pinout as follows
SUN HPIII
~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~
> Tx 2 ----------- 3 Rx
> Rx 3 ----------- 2 Tx
> RTS 4 4
> CTS 5 ----------- 20 DTR
> DSR 6 DSR
> Gnd 7 ----------- 7 Gnd
> DCD 8
> DTR 20
The above settings worked *very nicely indeed*.
I also received product literature from MAGMA on SBus products for
communication applications. (Sorry, this is not a plug, just have to
give everyone who responded credit for their efforts.)
