>>Hi!

>>Thanks for the reply.

>>>I finally understood your problem. You want to print "Print images", not the normal text files, right? I believe we use some dll for this purpose. My colleague found this dll somewhere. I can check the info for you, if you're interested.
>>
>>No, I just want to print the txt files from outside my App. on an NT Network and would like to direct it to a specific printer on the NT Network.
>>
>>I am also interested in the "Print images" as well and if you can check it out for me, that will be great.

>>Thanks.

I would recommend you to contact him directly by the e-mail. I don't know, is it a free or commercial product.
