Net use lpt 2 \\printserver\printer /persistent:yes

Thanks Steve, ICA isn't an option, we dumped it since we are not doing
load balancing and other things that ICA provides.

I did contact Intuit and they stated that QB 2005 has issues printing to
a "NETWORK" printer.  Although it will print directly to an IP Printer
(network??) but not something that looks like a //share type printer,
which is exactly what the client created printers look like.

If there was a way to MAP a local printer to the //clientcreated
printer, they said that should work.  I don't know of a way to do that.

OH, then I got the typical M$ answer - We know of the problem, we don't
have a solution, but we are working towards a work around.

Uh huh sure.
