You need a space between the port and UNC on the command line.

Ok guys - it's still not working for me...

Does any special protocols have to be loaded (besides tcp/ip) ? Netbeui or
NetBios ?
Actually there's another printer here - (which could be used) that has a ip
address assigned.
192.168.2.23 is the printer ip - Name: HP2280 using port: 9100  (raw)

I have tried - net use lpt1:\\192.168.2.23\HP2280  give me an error that it
can not be found.
I have also tried - net use lpt1:\\192.168.2.23\IP_192.168.2.23 with the
same error above.

When I ping 192.168.2.23 - I do get good results in return.

Regards
MWM
