Hi,
I am converting a Multi-user DOS application to Win 2003 Terminal Services.
There is a requirement to programmatically print a file to a
programmatically determined printer with embedded controls.
In the DOS version this is accomplished via a .bat file using the "TYPE"
command and the printer-id assigned to the terminal to which it is attached.

This is my first experience with Terminal Services and Widows servers.
I have tried several scenarios without success. I think I have more than 1
problem/question.

1. Should I install the printer as local or networked?
2. Can I address the printer by the shared name i.e. 003, shop_003,
term_003 etc?
3. Can I use a bat file with a command such as "type n0001.n shop_003"?

Thanks in advance.

Bruce
