Printing plain text from DOS program produces nothing

tkalfaoglu · 02-21-2007, 11:07 PM

My CANONiP6600D is connected to my Mandriva 10.0 machine.

The client, an XP, prints fine from any windows application.

Recently I had to use a DOS program on the XP, just to print plain text, and I defined:

net use lpt1: \\192.168.0.1\CANONiP6600D

(where 192.168.0.1 is the IP of the Mandriva)

now when I open up a DOS window on that XP and do a
dir > lpt1:

I see the following items in my /var/log/cups/error_log , but nothing prints.

(I also tried sharing the printer on the XP, and then:
net use lpt1: \\xpboxname\sharename
which took, but when I try the same dir > lpt1:, it gives me "invalid parameter" )

I would appreciate any assistance!
