I recently purchased a Vista computer to replace an XP one that has a DOS
based application. The DOS based application works fine on XP. It prints
successfully to a USB printer attached via a "net use lpt1:
\\computer\printersharename.
I have been able to get Vista to print out from a DOS command window by
typing "echo aaa > PRN". That works fine, but the DOS based application, runs
ok, but does not print. I get some error message about PRN not availabel and
to "retry abort, ignore, etc"
The issue is basically same as this link:

Does anybody has a solution? Thanks in advance,
Phil
