I have apparently managed to install the driver for an elderly Olivetti M220 as CUPS reports that the printer is responding to it and it is sending jobs to it but none of the jobs are printed. I am not sure whether the printer is configured by default to use a non-standard port or whether this was the decision of the admin who set it up many years ago; however, the control panel lists two port numbers, one of which is described as an ASCII port number.
I have looked at the openSUSE documentation but I cannot see anything which says whether, in the YasT>Printer>Configuration wizard, the port should be entered in decimal or hex or what the significance of calling one port number ASCII is. Any assistance welcome.
