Hi, i have installed dosemu dosemu-1.0.2.1 and
configure dosemu.conf to get direct access to
/dev/ttyS0, then i configure in dosemu the com1 port
with the "mode com1:9600,n,8,1,p" when i print it
works fine but when i print anything large, i am using
a pos printer, when i print a simple ticket works fine
and cut the paper too, but when i print the whole day
sales resume, the printer begins to print the lines
upon others and doesn´t cut the paper, do you know what
can be the problem? the printer and the program that i
am using for pos has been tested in a normal ms-dos
Computer.
I have other problem, i can´t use the (Ntilde) (Ñ) from
dosemu, do you know any way to do this?
Thanks by the help and sorry for my poor english

Ryan,
Yes i am root but it seems that i do direct access the ms-dos doesn´t
gives the com1 name to hardware, if i try set mode with this setup dos
says me that no com1 dev name exists.

Are you root when you run dosemu (or using sudo)? Direct port access

Hi Ryan,
When i try to do direct access like you say, ms-dos gives me an error
that com1 isn´t a valid name device.

Hmm, what kind of motherboard/serial card do you have (does it really
only
have a 16450 on it?) and what kind of printer is this?

Yeah, you need to add 0x3f8 to $_ports, and probably 4 to $_irqpassing
assuming it is on the standard COM1 port. That should accomplish the
direct access to com1. Remember to remove anything from "$_com1" that
you put in there.
