Hi,
I have tried to give up printing hard copies for every document, I may or
may not need, and sometime it is easier to select "Print to File" as an
option to save documents. However, somewhere along the line, my computer
quit printing "PRN.files."
Now when I enter the "PRINT" command at the DOS Prompt, and hit enter it
says that it is printing the file.
This is my theory, but have not had the chance to prove or disprove it. The
Dos Prompt is sending information to the "Printer Port," and the computer is
doing what it is suppose too. However, my new printer only connect, via USB,
and so I am out of luck, because USB drivers do not support "Print to File"
commands.
Please help me confirm this theory. I still have my LP1 printer someplace,
but that would be a hassle to have to dig it out. It would be better, if I
could just check something, and wa - la prn.files would print at the Dos
Prompt with my USB printer.
Adding this so you will know, yes the printer does print all other docoments.
Thanks,
Kevin
