printer_crlf
Epson printers monitor pin 14 of the parallel port to decide how to
handle CR. If pin 14 is high, the printer performs a CR. If pin 14 is
low, the printer performs a CR/LF. The default value is Y and enables
the converting of <CR> to <CR><LF>. The value of N disables the
parameter so the printer does not add a <LF>.
Telnet Connectivity to Parallel Ports
Parallel ports now appear on the network as Annex TCP ports 5901-
5999 and 7901-7999. This means that rtelnet can access the parallel
ports; aprint is no longer necessary to use the parallel ports.
