Then using a serial cord provided by the manufacturer of my printer I connected to the printer and the PC. I set the printer to run at 1200 baud, with no parity, 8 data, 1 stop, XON/XOFF. I put the following line in /etc/remote: printer:dv=/dev/cuaa1:br#1200:parity=none after connecting to the printer using "tip printer" I try to send a postscript file to the printer by: ~$psex1 The problem is that I continue to get the following result: Segmentation fault (core dumped) each time. Any advice appreciated. Nathan nathan@cslab.uky.edu
