Print out of a DOS Appl. on Networked Printers

[Dennis]

I have a small Network with a print that is connected to
the network via network cable not LPT1. My Windows Apps.
print great to printer but my dos apps. need LPT1 to be
Captured and redirected to the IP address of my printer.
How do I Capture the printer port.

Thanks,
Dennis

p.s. don't laugh about the old DOS apps. I only need them
from time to time.

In a logon script or at the command prompt you can use the followign
function:

NET USE LPT1: \\COMPUTER\SHARENAME /PERSISTENT:NO
