Trouble printing in Windows 2000 from MS-DOS

[Guest]

Hi:
I got a little Windows 2000 Profesional based network (three computers) and
I need to print from the DOS, using the "Print directly to the printer"
option, because an Oracle Applicacion. But, when I used the command
dir > \\computer1\printer
I received the message "Access is denied"
Could anybody help me with this?
The computers have Windows 2000 Professional with SP4.

Thanks

Try something like;

net use lpt1: \\computer1\printer
dir > lpt1
net use lpt1: /d
