Capturing network printer for lpt1

[Jeff Dodd]

I have a customer that use win 2k, but also uses an old
dos program, so to enable them to print to a network
printer I used the "net use lptx:
\\printserver\sharename /persistent:yes" command and it
worked, but on 1 of my workstations i need to remove it so
they can print to their own printer. Does anyone have a
clue on how to remove a lpt1 capture.

Use the command:

net use lptx /d

(Note that the colon ":" is optional).
