Problem

Symptoms: A customer could not print from the file server after one of the workstations printed on a LANtastic network. The customer has LPT2: configured as a local printer on the server and at the same time as a network printer for the workstations. The problem happens not only while printing in WP but also when printing in DOS. Solutions: The problem was fixed by using a NET USE command at the file server and making the printer attached to LPT2: a network printer for both the server and the workstations. The command used on the file server is as follows: NET USE LPT2: \\SERVERNAME\@PRINTER.
