UART0 COM1 transmission issue

We are using LP as user interface for our device (gas analyser). LP communicates with the rest of the device via UART0 (pin 5 and 7). Settings are: 115200 E 8 1, 20 bytes

We've noticed recurring, but not permanent, transmission problems, to be more specific with timing. Sometimes transmission is perfectly OK, like in old-school PCs - order generated by our program is transmitted in one package like this:

Questions are:

1. Has anyone noticed this problem?
2. Is it in fact LP issue, or we are doing something wrong?
3. What can we do to overcome this problem? Maybe it is an driver issue, BIOS setting or whatever else...
