My network printer is hooked up to the lpt1 port, as it always was, but now it is not working. I cannot get it to ping, it tells me "Request Timed Out." Any ideas?
You can't ping a printer that's attached via an LPT port, only one that has
a TCP/IP network device attached to it. Perhaps if you explain a bit more
clearly what your problem is we can help you solve it.
