-       This  function  uses the <STRONG>mc5p</STRONG> or <STRONG>mc4</STRONG> and <STRONG>mc5</STRONG> capabilities,
-       if they are present, to  ship  given  data  to  a  printer
-       attached to the terminal.
 
 
-       Note  that  the <STRONG>mcprint</STRONG> code has no way to do flow control
-       with the printer or to know how  much  buffering  it  has.
-       Your  application  is  responsible for keeping the rate of
-       writes to the printer below its continuous throughput rate
-       (typically  about  half  of its nominal cps rating).  Dot-
-       matrix printers and 6-page-per-minute lasers can typically
-       handle  80cps,  so a good conservative rule of thumb is to
-       sleep for a second after shipping each 80-character  line.
