I'm running XP on one of our accounts PC's. It has an Epson EPL-6900L Laser printer attached to it and I want to use it to print from Sage.
Thing is, Sage is running in DOS and I cannot get the damn laser printer to print from it or any other DOS program. An ideas how I can set it up??
I can use the "net use" commmand to capture an LPT port to the Epson queue but everytime I try to print to that port from DOS, I get an error saying it cannot be printed. any ideas???

Worked for us

Not off top of my head I would guess control panel and go from there, hard ware if not system hard ware management will be best bet then delete the LPT port, restart add new unless it find its plug and play....
