Batch file for printing ?

[chief39]

I need a batch file for win2k pro to print a text file.
I can go into cmd.exe and use print /d:LPT1 c:\911\wbfc.txt
and it works fine but can't make it work from .bat file. Thanks for your help!

Hi,

Try gigving this thing from barch file.
TRy to map the printer first frouseing this command


"Net use lpt1: \\servername\printersharename"
"print c:\filename"

This worked for me.
