Title: Connecting serial plotters to a server running 3+

Can I connect a serial plotter to my server running 3+, or does the serial
port support only printers?

A.  Remember that 3+Share/Print service will communicate to
any standard output device.  3Com servers and most PC servers
have standard serial ports.  3+Share/Print does not massage the
data that is sent to the output ports.  The data is sent
directly, in the form in which it was received from the
netstation.  Therefore, if your software communicates to a
plotter connected directly to your netstation, you should have no
problem communicating to the plotter connected to your server.  I
would, however, perform a 3N Set command and turn off my banner
page.  You should also verify compatibility in the 3Com
"Compatible Products Directory."
