You've to use NET USE command to map LPT1 to the network printer queue. For Exapmle
NET USE LPT1 \\PrintServer\PrintQueue
>I've got an old FPD 2.5 application that's running on our XP network. The app runs just fine, but when the user tries to print anything, nothing happens. Their printer is set up properly, as they're able to print from other apps (Microsoft Office, etc.), but not from this FPD app. I look at the printer, and it doesn't show any jobs out there, so it's as if the job isn't being sent to the printer at all. The code hasn't changed in years, so their shouldn't be any problems programmatically.
