Trouble Printing w/HomeWord
I have acquired a copy of Sierra Online's word processor called HomeWord for the PCjr. I am trying to get it to print to my Compact Printer. I have the Internal Modem and Parallel Port installed in my system. The program explicitly supports printing to a serial printer, and the defaults seem designe...

Re: FTPSRV and PCjr.
Perhaps some hardware is slower than other hardware. Could you be so good as to share the proper debug script?

Re: Is there a way to perform the Tandy Mod externally
Actually, I don't mean to hijack the thread, but is there any negative effects from a tandy mod on any software? I've seen some artifacting on the Exploring The PCjr software when I have it enabled, so I was wondering if something is screwed up with one of my TTLs, but I currently don't have a logi...

Re: FTPSRV and PCjr.
My Parallel Printer Attachment is set to LPT1/0x378 and is unidirectional, in other words, unmodded.

Re: PCjr Ethernet?
Wouldn't a Lantronix ethernet-to-serial device be severely limited by the speed of the serial port, which officially is 4,800 baud? Echo? I pointed out the limited speed of the serial port in the post previous to yours ... To be more precise, serial port speed is around 480 bytes per second. Ethern...

Re: jr Newsletter disks?
I received a CD recently with programs, patches and many articles from the jrNewsletter. The game patches were the most interesting. I put a list of the games with descriptions of what each patch does on my blog : http://nerdlypleasures.blogspot.com/201 ... un-on.html

Re: FTPSRV and PCjr.
Remember, the Xircom can be setup to not use a hardware interrupt. I think the syntax is int=0. When you do that it will hook the timer interrupt and poll the hardware instead which is slower, but it works well enough for light usage. Use this mode to test your theory on the IRQ conflict. It turns ...

Re: FTPSRV and PCjr.
Okay, on my PCjr., everything is perfect both ways after setting the transfer type to binary, the maximum number of connections to 1, the timeout to 200 seconds and the speed limits to 25K/25K. On my Tandy 1000SX, uploading is a problem, but I have some well-founded suspicions that the parallel port...

FTPSRV and PCjr.
I am having trouble with receiving files when using FTPSRV. For small files, it may work OK, but sometimes the file sizes don't match. But for larger (>100K) files, the server will timeout or fail to receive them. If it resends, I have seen it append the retransfered file to the next file. My PCJr. ...
