This one has me baffled. I am using Windows XP trying to print to a network printer on a windows server. I have tried using the net use command with the ip address of the printer. When I tried to add a new printer it did not come up showing a printer name. I was trying to add a new printer and see if I can use LPT2 to route the data to LPT2. Is there anyway that I see the printer name under the properties command. When I list the printer it shows up as a SCB09635_P1. It does not give me the option to route to LPT2. I tried typing in 'net use lpt2: 192.168.1.3/scb09635_p1' to route to the printer with no luck. Can anyone direct me in setting up to print to a network printer using arev 3.12. Thank you in advance for any help Joe </QUOTE> —- === At 25 MAR 2006 12:48PM Warren Auyong wrote: === <QUOTE>I rarely use the net use command but shouldn't the syntax be: net use lpt2: \\servername\printername /persistant:yes http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/net_use.mspx?mfr=true </QUOTE> View this thread on the forum...
