From what I recall, (and a very brief look at the code again),
you would have to look at when lptintr() gets called.  There
is (I don't recall) any counter.  I didn't go grovelling
anywhere outside the lpt code when I was working on it.

You may have to add some debug code to diagnose what is happening.

Geoff.
