Probably like as easy as scratching your ass to you lot.

Someone has told me before but I have forgotten the important part!
I know how to print(copy) the .prn file to LPT1 but how do I make LPT1 the network printer?

Muchos gracias amigos

You only use LPT1 if you are using the locally attached printer.

The network printer will have created a Port in your printer settings on that machine.

You then pipe the PRN to that port.

Thanks but the answer I was looking for was;

net use lpt1 [networkPrinterAddress]


Thanks for the help though. But my neighbour wins this round.

Why would you want to print your porn files over the network? Surely you'd get more privacy doing it on your own printer?
