This is host-based DTC control via NMMGR and I am using the same printer
profile for each DTC.  It "almost" works with the DTC 48 modem ports; that
is, the printer prints, it just isn't intellegible.  Plus it form feeds
willy-nilly and other wonderful stuff.  It almost looks like a baud rate or
parity issue.  And like I said, it works very nicely when using the
three-pin ports, and terminals work very nicely on the "modem" ports, so I'm
not really very motivated to "fix" anything now...
