Remote Desktop and printing from a DOS app

[BottleWasher]

I have a client that has Windows XP Pro on her office computer. She wants to work from home (her home computer is Win98se). The application she uses most is a DOS program (MD Versaform). She wants to be able to print from MD Versaform to her home printer (HP Deskjet). Is this possible?

I have her setup with Remote Desktop and everything else works great so far. Versaform is supposedly coming out with a Windows-based program within the next couple of months (which will solve this problem), but she wants to be able to work from home like yesterday.

Any ideas?

thanks -

We use DOS software over terminal services all the time. How does her software work? Does it send data to an LPT port? If so then you need to manually map the printer that is redirected for her in TS to the LPT port. Or you need to get a third-party program that will convert her DOS print jobs to windows.
