USB printer

Can a USB printer be mapped to an LPT port using Net Use
command? I have an old program that prints to LPT1.

Thanks,
Nancy

If you share the printer then you can
net use lpt1: \\yourcomputername\sharename /persistent:yes

where
yourcomputername is the name of your computer
and
sharename is the share you gave to the printer

to share the printer right click on the printer and select sharing and it
shodul be self explanitory from there.
