Are you using 3 or 4-wire serial drops? If you are, how are you configuring
the host connector for each port? I have a Digi PortServer II setup on our
network under RH9 and it has worked well for modems, printers, terminals,
and even a SMDR hook into our phone system.

You'll probably get more specific help on this, but at first glance it
looks like the serial port isn't flushing its buffer, causing the report
to truncate the last n characters, 'n' being the size of the buffer.
Thanks for the help on this Ed. I think you might be on the right track
there. Sometimes when we take the printer off line and then back on
again, it prints a few missing characters from the previous report, so
yes, they're still in the buffer.
If we print a massive report, we don't lose anything - only the last few
characters.
If I can't fix this, we'll have to install a network print server, but
it's frustrating that the Specialix box has always been like this - I
don't rate them very highly. They don't seem to work well with modems
either.
