The problem was setting up the port as a file path (when setting up the printer) and that worked well to print to the file, but it doesn't print to the actual printer from what I can tell and I'm wondering if there is extra steps necessary to print to a networked printer, but that seems doubtful to me. -- Warm Regards, Lee "When my company started out, we were really, really, really, really small.
