Printing a PRN file

[Crazy_Bob]

Is there anyone that knows how to print a PRN file to a printer that has
been
setup on a TCP/IP LPR port?

Here is my setup:

Wireless Laptop, Wireless Router and Wireless Printer Server. Both the
Router and Printer Server are located in the same room so I have the two
connected with a network cable, the Laptop is in another room. My printer is
an Epson which has been setup on the Laptop using a TCP/IP LPR port NOT the
usual LPT port.

Thanks!

i don't know that you can necessarily do this. i seem to recall that if
you had a directly connected printer (serial or parallel) you could use
the DOS copy command to copy the prn file to the printer.
unless you find some kind of utility to handle the prn file and even
then it may not see the networked print server.
if i come across a solution on my travels i'll post it here.

if you have acrobat distiller, open the prn file with that and create the
pdf.you should then easily print that
