Did the trick. I mapped his USB printer to LPT1 using NET USE and everything is fine. Much appreciated!

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.
