Can you not print to a Lexmark Z52 printer in DOS? Just bought one and I can't even do a dir >LPT1 It just sits there and does nothing. Prints fine in Windows. Has anyone else heard of this problem with these printers?

Good answer! If you shell to DOS (DOS from within Windows) it should work. If you boot to DOS you have to install a DOS driver before it will work.
