Is there a workaround to get a dos program to print in windows to a windows printer?
I have an old creaky dos app that we still use in business. We run windows xp. Today our printer (brother 1440) dropped dead. We can order a cheap drum. In the meantime we have several printers that can run on parallel port to the system. Cant get the DOS app to print as the printer seems to be more windows based than the old one. Is there any possible workaround to get the DOS app to print in windows to this "windows" printer. Appreciate any ideas.
If the printer has a parallel port dos text print should work. If you're printing something more complicated than text it's probably not going to happen without dos drivers for the printer. If you could save or print to a file, you could open that file in Windows and print it.
