More often than not they cannot get their material to print. Query, is
this a WIN95 issue or am I missing something really basic? >>
When you install the printer, the wizard will ask if you need to print from
DOS applications. Be sure you answer yes. Now, I can't recall offhand, but I
think the same wizard gives you a chance to specify what port you're using and
what que it should capture to. If I am wrong and it's not part of the wizard,
you can always right-click on your printer, choose details, and set your
capture there.
