I am trying to set up a serial printer (Okidata Microline 182 Plus) under RedHat 7.3 and am not having much luck...maybe somebody out there has a few tips for me. The printer is plugged into the first DB9 serial port on my computer (labeled 1). The serial ports are found at boot:
<snip> Serial driver version 5.05c (2001-07-08) with MANY_PORTS MULTIPORT SHARE_IRQ SERIAL_PCI ISAPNP enabled ttyS00 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A ttyS01 at 0x02f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A </snip> ...and I am seeing this in /proc/tty/driver/serial: <snip> serinfo:1.0 driver:5.05c revision:2001-07-08 0: uart:16550A port:3F8 irq:4 baud:1200 tx:11 rx:0 RTS|DTR|DSR|RI 1: uart:16550A port:2F8 irq:3 baud:9600 tx:18 rx:0 </snip> However, the following command just hangs when I type it at the console: # echo "hello" > /dev/ttyS0 And typing this just returns me to the command prompt with no result: # echo "hello" > /dev/ttyS00 Does anybody have any idea what my problem is here? Do I need to do something with the setserial command? Thanks in advance for your help.
