Respected sir/madam

I have 25 PIII computers with 2000 operating system & 2070 epson,245 TVE printers. I have problem in printing Dos base application print on network printer (on local printer it is coming).
Windows prints are coming from all computers on network printers but not from Dos (I also take that printer as a default printer). Please give me a solution.

Thanking you

When you install the printer you need to check the box saying that it will be printing from Dos based programs. You may also need to install a dos based driver for each printer.....Good Luck

Hi,
The clients which want use a shared/network printer must use this command in command prompt:
"net use lpt1: \\ServerName\SharePrinterName"
If you type again "Net use" you will see if the previous command has efect.
To make other map:
"net use lpt1: /delete" and map other printer.
Don't use this command on computers which have local printers.
