I kind of got lost on this thread because I couldn't tell if the person was
trying to print to a USB attached printer from DOS or a parallel port
attached printer from DOS.
In general, when I need to print from DOS I do the following:

Hi!
If your printer has USB, you could try a generic USB
"printer port" driver as long as the printer still
understands commands DOS apps can produce. Some just

Microsoft Network client for MS-DOS can produce a local LPT device
that gets redirected over the MS networking stuff (CIFS/SMB over
