I have a DOS based program running on 98 that prints to a Novell print queue
using the capture cammand. Now I would like to print to an ip printer. This
ip printer is not setup as a shared printer on a print server. It's just on
an jetdiret box with an IP address. All our workstations just print to an
standard ip port. How can I have the DOS program capture the ip port? The
only way I could figure to do it is have it print to a file, open the file
with notepad and print using windows to the ip printer. Is there another way?
