I have dos program that needs to print to lpt1. How do I
redirect a networked printer to that port. I know how to
do it in windows xp, but am unfamiliar with windows
2000. Thanks.
 
I have a Netware 5.0 network and have used the capture
command in a batch file that runs on the workstation at
startup.
Capture l=1 p=(here you type in the netware printer object)
another option is the net use command as in
net use lpt1 \\Server name\printer queue name
hope that helps
