Jochem,
Here are the server specs:
Windows XP
ColdFusion MX
What did you mean by the "/c" parameter? Should I add that command in order
to close the command?
Like this?
<CFEXECUTE NAME="C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe"
ARGUMENTS="copy C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\CFDEV\barcode\zebra.txt LPT1
/c"
TIMEOUT="5"></CFEXECUTE>

I'm not so sure about that.

2 issues:
CF MX always waits for the entire period specified in the timeout
instead of the shortest of the timeout and the process finishing (but
you still haven't told us which version/OS/servicepack you use).
Every version of CF will wait forever on your specific code because if
you call cmd.exe you need the /c parameter.
