Is the local printer connected to an LPT port on the win95 machine or is it USB? Was it installed with the print from DOS checked?

>>If it has to print to a network printer, make sure the network printer is shared with a share name 8 chars or less and no spaces (this is probably already the case since it was originally working on another 95 machine). Go to the 95 pc that worked and looked at the net use command in a dos window (type net use and view the mappings). On the new win95 pc, utilize the net use command in a dos window to map the network printer to a local lpt port then in your FPD program, print to that lpt port. For example:
>>
>>net use LPT2: \\servername\sharename /persistent:yes

>>>We have an Foxpro Dos 1.x or 2.x app that is running but not printing to the dot matrix printer.

>>>What happened is, the 95 PC that the app ran on had a hardware problem so the drive was copied to a different 95 PC. Now the app runs but won't print from the new 95 PC.

>>>If I remember, didn't FPDos 2.x have a printer driver app? Did this require the Foxuser resource file? What files are required?
