I am trying to print files through an on DOS program. I have following the instruction of some old threads
and getting very close.
In summary, I am running DOSBOX MegaBuild6 under Windows 7 and XP (I am testing on both machine). Accessing a network printer (USB connected to an XP desktop).
I run "net use lpt1 \\XPDesktop\USBPrinter /persistent:yes" before running DOSBOX MB6.
Added "parallel1=file dev:lpt1" under the config file.
Installed the "winpcap" driver.
While printing, the DOS program sent something over to the printer. Status window says "Parallel 1: File closed."
However, printer only print out blank paper. Wonder if anyone knows what the fix would be?

Don
