Re: How to print in FP 2.6 if there is no LPT1?
I'm a bit confused here but I assume you mean the printer is on USB but since there are no LPT ports you don't have the option to redirect one? You can create an LPT port - go to control panel \ Printers and add a printer. Select local printer and in select printer port then use the add a port option.

How to print in FP 2.6 if there is no LPT1?
How can I print from FP 2.6 DOS application which is working on laptop which does not have any LPT1? If there is LPT1 in a laptop, I can direct it to USB. In FP 2.6, printing is directed to LPT. But there is no LPT in laptop. How can I solve this problem?
