I'm looking for a little guidance here, I have brought a USB to RS422 serial adapter and have wired up a according to these instructions: http://www.emaculation.com/doku.php/imagewriter_serial_cable_printing(I'm using a different adapter, but have wired it up the same and can't see why it should make a difference)
I than tried to set it up on my macbook following this: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6621
The result? not a lot, When I try to print to it the print head moves from the center all the way to the left, then back to the center, Without printing anything (As far as I can tell - I'm waiting for a replacement ribbon for it). I have also tried it under windows xp using the C-Itoh 8510 driver, with the same result
The printer is fine as far as I can tell, it seems to be printing fine from my IIci
I'm at a bit of a loss as to why this isn't working, anyone got any ideas?
