Assuming the printer shows up as an installed printer in Vista, you could redirect the LPT1 DOS printer port to its print queue. Assuming your machine name is MyComputer:

1. go into the printer Properties and share it, giving it a name such as SharedPrinter

2. Redirect LPT1 to that shared printer (even though it's on the same computer):

NET USE LPT1 \\MyComputer\SharedPrinter /persistent:y
