I have 2 windows 2000 (SP4) pc's, both with a local printer attached to lpt1. PC1 has an HP DJ690C parallel. PC2 has an Epson FX880+ dot matrix Parallel. PC1 Also prints to an HP LJ5 (networked) which is the default printer for this pc. PC2 Also prints to an HP LJ4600 (networked) which is the default printer. Why does PC1 decide to print to PC2's lpt1? There are no shares assigned to the fx880+ and no mappings on PC1 to go to the FX880+ !!!!!!!! Both networked printer on these 2 PC's are set up on the same print server windows 2000 server (sp4) Any ideas? This email and any attachments may be confidential and/or legally priviledged.
