If I might butt in, I think you're saying:

 * In general does printing data to a serial printer using canonincal mode
   produce the expectd outcome [i.e. text or whatever you're printing]?

 * Is this the best way to print to serial printers?

But I'm not entirely sure (I can't quite understand the grammatical
structure or flow of your questions (:< )
