Verify the Physical Port Characteristics
Procedure
The table Port and Device Problems lists the first items to verify when you have problems
involving a printer (or any other device) and its port. For example, make sure that the
Speed, Parity, and Character Size characteristics defined for the port match the printer’s
settings.
Once you have verified that the port characteristics are configured properly, try printing
again. If you cannot print, use the TEST PORT command. See the section Test the Printer
Port (page 11-4).
