/devices/pci@0,0/isa@7/asy@1,3f8:a,cu is definitely an old-fashioned parallel port from the DOS days -- ISA bus, IRQ 7, port 0x3f8. I remember programming those with peek and poke... It's almost certainly not what your printer is actually plugged into. Where it actually is, I don't know.

Ok - I can certainly accept what you say. VMWare tells me that the guest is provided Serial 1 and that is where I have told Solaris to find the printer. Perhaps this is a VMWare issue.

Thanks for your input Corona688...
