printer
port.(ie \\computername\printer can be mapped to LPT1). But this
option is
not available with windows 2000 onwards operating system. May be I am
not
aware of this.
I hope you have understood the case with us. I will be extremely
happy to
receive a proper suggestion from you. *
From the command prompt (Start -> Run -> cmd)Type: NET USE LPT1 \\server\printer /P:Yes
Type NET USE to confirm what is hooked up
Type Net USE /? for an explanation of the options
