Question DOS pograms & printing to USB win7

[Derek2U]

I hear that Printfil makes it possible to print to usb port from LPT1 setup. Any one know abouts this or ways around the issue?

You don't need printfil, or any other software to print to a USB port from a DOS program. All you have to do is share the USB printer and then use the command "net use LPT1 \\yourPCname\sharedprintername" from the command line (sans the quote marks).
