Redirect DOS LPT through USB error
I'm using a DOS program and need to redirect an LPT port
through to the USB printer. I'm using windows XP and the computer isn't on a network. I've shared my local printer and tried to use the command net use lpt1 \\computer name\printer name /persistent:yes However, when I do this it gives me an error message "System error 1231 has occured. The network location cannot be reached." When I use net view \\computer name it correctly shows me the printer as availablke Any ideas - its driving me crazy !

Andrew,
I'm using windows XP and the computer isn't on a network. You have to disable the "Media Sensing" or you have to install a dummy network card, such as the "Microsoft Loopback Adapter" Kind regards, Davide Guolo -------------------------------------------------------------- Printfil - Windows Printing System for Applications http://www.guolo.com/printfil Odbc4All - Connection to ODBC Data Sources for any Application http://www.guolo.com/odbc4all --------------------------------------------------------------
