For those of you, or those of you with clients, who have MSDOS based programs like Wordperfect and you want to print to a networked printer, this is all you need. This also works for other printers who use USB ports or something other than LPT.
The solution was to map the share to an LPT port using [I]net use[/I]. For example:
[I]net use lpt1 \\printserver\sharename /persistent:yes[/I]If the USB printer is on your local machine, you can share it and then map this same printer locally to an LPT port.
