RE: A very basic printing question re XY3

[Brian.Henderson@xxxxxxxx]

I know next to nothing about this subject, but I have an old Xy3 startup
file with this at the top:

DO NET USE LPT1 \\dakota\ed_8k1 /YES

Some of that means:

dakota = server name
ed_8k1 = printer name
/YES = persistent (if I remember correctly)

If you're going that route, I think you have in mind the DOS command:
MODE.

Something like MODE LPT1=LPT3

(actual syntax may need adjustment--trying Googling it)
