<< Does it support char. mode printing to a local printer ? (COPY &vFileName LPT1) >> JM, I'm not sure. I know you can print unformated data, but I believe you can. There is some information in the Win2K help section. As for the net use command, this is directly from the Win2K help file: To connect to a printer attached to a NetWare server by using a command prompt Open Command Prompt. When you run any application that writes directly to a predefined port, the net use command works like the NetWare capture utility, associating the NetWare print queue with the port. To redirect output from a port to a print queue At the command prompt, use the net use command followed by the server name and print queue. For example, net use lpt1 \\nw4\memos redirects output from LPT1 to the NetWare print queue called Memos on the server Nw4. This is equivalent to the NetWare capture q=memos s=nw4 l=1 command line. To send files that do not require formatting to LPT1 After you redirect output with net use, use the copy command. For example: copy myfile.txt lpt1 To copy a file directly to a print queue After you redirect output with net use, use the copy command. For example: copy myfile.txt \\nw4\memos To connect to a printer in an NDS tree At the command prompt, type: net use drive: \\treename\printer.OrgName.OrgName [/u:UserName.OrgName.OrgName [password]] where: treename is the name of the tree printer. OrgName is the tree location to which you want to connect. UserName.OrgName.OrgName is the user name and context for this tree (unless it is your default tree). Notes To open Command Prompt, click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, and then click Command Prompt. To view or connect to NetWare resources, you must first install Client Service for NetWare or Gateway Service for NetWare, and the NWLink IPX/SPX/NetBIOS Compatible Transport Protocol. You can type the path to an NDS resource with or without labels (cn=, ou=, o=). If you are running Client Service for NetWare and use a command prompt, you should use the 32-bit version (Cmd.exe), which is available on the Programs menu, not the 16-bit version (Command.com).
