Using Ubuntu Linux with WINE
An expert describes how to map Ubuntu Linux serial ports to the serial ports of a Windows application running in WINE.
Baud rate = 9600 Data bits = 8 Stop Bits = 2 Parity = None Flow Control = HardwareHow do I change the serial port settings in Ubuntu Linux to match the settings above? How do I map the Linux serial ports to the serial ports of the Windows application running in WINE?
By default WINE should see properly configured CUPS printers. To configure a CUPS printer with the settings you listed, I recommend you type "man printers.conf" from a terminal and then edit the /etc/cups/printers.conf file appropriately. The printer URL you need to specify will look something like this:
serial:/dev/SERIAL_PORT?baud=9600+bits=8+parity=none+flow=hard
SERIAL_PORT is your serial port device.
