Printing from MS-DOS Programs
Windows can redirect print data from a parallel port on your PC (e.g. LPT1) to a network
printer. This redirection is called "Capture Printer Port", and is useful for MS-DOS programs.
The MS-DOS program is configured to use LPT1 (parallel port 1 on the PC), but Windows
"captures" the print data and sends it to the network printer.
Capture settings can be set by:
•
Saying "Yes" to the prompt "Do you print from MS-DOS programs?" when installing a
Network Printer.
•
Or, using the Capture Printer Port menu option shown in Figure 5 above.
This will result in a dialog like the following, where you can select the port on the PC to be
captured. Normally, this will be LPT1 (parallel port 1 on the PC).
Figure 6: Capture Printer Port
The File menu in the Printers folder also has options for Capture Printer Port and End
Capture .
