Ed,
I finally got it to print, here is what you have to do, firstly the Capture command is not supported in NT 4.0 ( no wonder I couldn't find it )
issue this at the command prompt

NET USE LPT: \\YOURSERVER\YOURQUEUE

MSDN article-ID: Q154498 How to Print to Network Printer from MS-DOS-Based Programs


Thanks for your help
