I'm having an odd problem with DOS network printing. I have a DOS program
on a Windows XP workstation that I need to have its printing redirected to a
printer shared on a Windows 2003 server. I use the appropriate NET USE
command: "NET USE LPT1: \\bccg_server\laser3 /persistent:yes"... gives me no
errors. But actual printing goes nowhere. Sometimes, the print job DOES
show up in the workstation's print queue for that printer, but reports an
error and will not forward to the printer. The workstation can print to
that printer in any Windows program, and the network user has the
appropriate rights to that printer share. I tried the same NET USE command
on other workstations and other users (including Administrator), but had the
same issue.
Any thoughts?
