HELP! Any Slave printing Experts,
 
I'm up against the wall here, can't put users on the new 969.
 
I have been using two subroutines "SLAVON" & "SLAVOFF" for many years on
the series 70. They have always worked great.
 
Now on the series 969 "SLAVOFF" hangs on a read. I think maybe it's
because the 969 in so much faster than the searies 70 Don't know for
sure. The original author is unavailable.
 
I have attached (NOT THE PROGRAM SOURCE) two small files that contain a
list of calls each routine does. The hangup occurs in step 6 of the
"SLAVOFF" routine.
 
I would very much appreciate any HELP!, or if anyone knows of a WRQ list
I can subscribe too.
 
Thanks in advance,
