T Thomas Ferguson Dec 30, 2003 #2 Open a DOS window and type copy /b <file_name> lpt1 <file_name_ is the fully-qualified path to the prn file e.g... copy /b c:\prn_files\test.prn The printer must be connected by parallel connection to the port lpt1. You can substitute other ports if the port number differs. Plan B. Check out http://www.lerup.com/printfile/ It's freeware and will print to a USB printer, I'm told. I have never tried it.
