Hello everyone,
we have a program at work called Lantech which is a dos based program and I can't for the life of me get it to print on our printer which is hooked up to a win95 system.

I can't get the printer port captured, don't have a clue.
Any ideas?
Thanks for your help.

Try from a DOS prompt:

net use lpt1: \\computername\printername /persistent:yes
