DOS Printing

[Talon]

Does anybody know a way to get a Dos application to print to a LPT port
higher that LPT3. I can use use LPT 1 to 3 fine but LPT 4 or higher just do
nothing.

I doubt it's possible. LPT 1 to 3 and, more importantly, the corresponding
OS port addresses, were defined as the available printer ports at the origin
of the PC.
