    The default serial port configuration of the LaserWriter and LaserWriter
    Plus is: no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit.

    The default serial port configuration of the LaserWriter IINT and
    LaserWriter IINTX is: no parity, 7 data bits, 1 stop bit.

    The difference in the default data bits may cause a problem for a PC
    communicating with

    - a LaserWriter IINT in Diablo emulation

    - a LaserWriter IINTX in HP LaserJet+ emulation or Diablo emulation (if the
    PC is configured for communication with a LaserWriter or LaserWriter Plus.

    The PC and the LaserWriter must be configured with the same data bit
    settings. Search on "LaserWriter" and "serial connection" for specific
    instructions for configuring the LaserWriter and a PC for serial
    communications.
