How Can I Set the Printer Serial Port?
One of the assumption made in this hint is "Printer serial port = /dev/cu.printer", but the file "cu.printer" does not exist in /dev/ directory on my machine. As a result, printing does not happen. How can I set the printer serial port to /dev/cu.printer?
How Can I Set the Printer Serial Port?
Serial ports will only show up if they exist and are recognized. For instance I have a G4 Powerbook where the only serial device is the built in modem so I only have cu.modem but not cu.printer. I assume that with a USB to serial adapter a device would be added when the adapter is connected. I will test this when I am have access to one. I assume the author is using a Beige G3 or other OSX compatible Mac with serial ports.

In your terminal go to the /dev/ directory, and look for the correct name of your serial port. |
