Looking fore a transperent printerdriver

I have a printing device with a serial interface.
It is connected to a serial port of a print server, that is connected to the
network.
To day I am printing from a UNIX box, but I am moving the system to a
Windows platform.

The application is printing to a LPT-port (e.g. LPT9).
LPT9 is redirected to \\server\sharename using NET USE LPT9:
\\server\sharename

My problem is: What I am sending into LPT9 is NOT what the printing device
is receives.

My best guess is that the printerdriver on \\server\sharename is trying to
interpreter the data received from LPT9.

Here is a little example:

The \\server\sharename is installed with a driver: Generic/Text only

LPT9 receives:
01 50 02 31 41 4B 53 45 .P.1AKSE
4C 42 03 0D 01 56 02 30 LB...V.0
31 34 34 34 34 03 0D 01 14444...
56 02 30 32 33 33 33 33 V.023333
03 0D 01 56 02 30 33 32 ...V.032
32 32 32 03 0D 01 56 02 222...V.
30 34 31 31 31 31 03 0D 041111..

The printing device receives:
0D 0A 0D 0A 20 50 31 41 .... P1A
4B 53 45 4C 42 0D 0A 20 KSELB..

How can I define a printer, that is totally transparent?
