I am having trouble setting up a program to print in dos on W2K
workstation.

In windows 95 I create a printer using LPT:1 then I go into the properties
go to the detail tab and use capture printer port to select the printer to
print to.  Everything works fine.  Well with W2K I can not do this.

I have tried to use the arcticle How to Print to Network Printer from
S-Dos-Based Programs.  It gives this example

net use lpt<x>: \\<printserver>\<sharename> /persistent:yes

When I go to the printer as if I was going to set up a network printer I
have this information

\\KTL\Epson DFX-5000+ (Copy 2)

So I have tried this command line
net use lpt1: \\ktl\epson dfx-5000+ (copy 2) /persistent:yes

and I have tried 
net use lpt1: \\ktl\epson dfx-5000+ /persistent:yes

I get this message The network resource type is not correct.

Any idea's on what I am doing wrong?

TIA,
Brett
