I have a serial printer on PC #1 that I want to share to PC #2.  I can 
see the printer on PC #1 from PC #2, but when I try to capture the 
printer port, it only shows me parallel-type ports (LPT1 to LPT9).  The 
problem is that the software I want to use on PC #2 "knows" that the 
printer I have selected (a bar code printer) is a serial device and 
will only allow me to configure the printer on COM1 - COM4.

I need some way of "mapping" COM3 (for example) to LPT2.  Can this be 
done under Windows 95?
