You've missed that post. There's some other issue here where LPT1 is in use or something and cannot be used. When he net uses on LPT2, it works fine. FWIW, where I work we still have a DOS program that people thought could only print to LPT1. But, you can trick it by choosing "print to file" option from the program and entering a filename of LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, COM1, etc. Ray at work > -----Original Message----- > From: Daniel Ensor [mailto:densor@xxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2003 9:22 AM > To: 'windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' > Subject: [windows2000] Re: RES: Re: net use lpt1 > \\zeus\hplaserj /persistent:yes > > > Do the users have permissions on the printer. i.e. in the > security tab of > the printer properties on the print server? > > Or have I missed that post? > > Cheers > Dan ********************************************************************************************************** The information contained in this e-mail message is intended only for the personal and confidential use of the recipient(s) named above.
