port ("uart1:").
The RS 422/485 interface on "uart2:" is galvanically insulated from
the printer in order to avoid electrical interference.

is installed and adds communication and buffer setup options for the
two additional communication ports.

of interfaces become available:
"uart1:"
RS 232C
RS 422 or 20 mA CL
