Serial Output Ports
If either of the serial ports will not be used as alternate host input ports,
they may be used as output ports. To use one of the serial ports as an
output port, the user should load the configuration for the printer.
Additionally, the baud, parity, length, stops and flow control must be set. If
no driver is available for the printer, use the _GENERIC driver.
If building a configuration from scratch, in addition to the steps outlined
for the parallel out port, the user must specify the baud, parity, length,
stops and flow control.
If configuring a serial port for output, load the printer driver for the
port before making any changes to the configuration. The printer
driver includes all of the IN/OUT, BAUD, PARITY, LENGTH, STOPS
and FLOW settings, and these settings will overwrite the current
settings when loaded.
