Thanx for the link, but I understand a few things, if you can plese mail me
step by step how to configure this.

This is the way how I do...
1.) Go to printer, find it (EPSON-FX 1050)... and just rename it in "EPSON"
cause dos know only 8 first leters
2.) Share preinter and give name "EPSON"
3. Go to COMMAND PROMP LINE and type
net use lpt1: \\PC\Epson /persistent:yes
PC (my comp. name) EPSON(printer share
name) and ENTER
4.) After this command comp. wrote THE COMMAND COMPLETED SUCCESSFULLY
5.) I run my aplication, and nothing

My mail is " you can send a print-screen pictures
how you dit this.
Thanx
