Michael:
	One of the problems with the Wyse 995 is that it only supports
XON/XOFF protocol under SCO Xenix..

        You may want to check the printers to make sure they are setup for
XON/XOFF and not DTR or CTS hardward handshaking.  We have had problems 
with this in the past.

	You also would normally not be using normal terminal configurations
for a printer since it will not have a login.
