Re: Printing XyWrite

Patricia was quoted as:
    >>Now create a batch file, which you should run before
you run Xy (or include this line in any batch file by
which you launch Xy), consisting of this one command:
NET USE LPT1 \\computername\sharename /PERSISTENT:YES
substituting the name of your PC (revealed by net view)
for "computername" and the name you assigned when you
declared the printer shared for "sharename".
The batch file is both unnecessary and disparaged (by Robert Holmgren).
It's unnecessary because the point of /PERSISTENT:YES is precisely to make
it retain its setting, even after fresh booting. At least on my system, I
needed to do the NET USE thing only once.
