From the Start menu, select Settings/Printers. In the Printer window,
right-click the printer you want to use from DOS and select Properties. In the
Properties dialog, select the Details tab, click the Capture Printer Port
button, then assign an LPT port to the printer. Now DOS apps can print to that
port.
