I'm using a DOS program and need to redirect an LPT port
through to the USB printer. I'm using windows XP and the
computer isn't on a network.
I've shared my local printer and tried to use the command
net use lpt1 \\computer name\printer name /persistent:yes
However, when I do this it gives me an error
message "System error 1231 has occured. The network
location cannot be reached."
When I use net view \\computer name it correctly shows me
the printer as availablke
Any ideas - its driving me crazy !
