x-no-archive: yes

The only way I know is to "copy" it to the printer with a DOS command.
Do a search on "Print to File" on Google groups and you'll see the exact
command.
It'll look something like this:
copy output.prn lpt1

The command is "copy/b yourfile prn" where yourfile is the filename to be
printed. Omit the quotes.
The "/b" switch in necesary after the copy command.

1 Go to "Run" and execute "command" to get a DOS-like prompt.
2 Then run the above command.
3 Type "exit" to return to Win2K.

Thanks much. "copy 'file name' lpt1" worked just like I wanted. Original
file printed on my printer.

Regards, Hawkeye
