    Need to create virtual parallel port on windows 7

    If I was to use this, I cannot install the parallel print driver on the Win 7 computer as it doesn't exist. I would have to install it in the XP VM so, I am assuming that the printer would still have an IP address that I could access from Win 7?

    Need to create virtual parallel port on windows 7

    Hi Ed: Si I understand, the idea is that the server connects to the printer via the parallel connector and the connector connects to the network via Ethernet cable. The printer then has an IP address that the computer prints to. Is that right?http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1724633

    Thanks @ Chris - have not investigated the server idea @ XWB - I have drivers for XP and have installed XP Mode on one of the machines. In the XP VM I installed the printer and it shows as being on LPT 1 but it also shows as not available and won't print a test page to it This is where I am...

    Need to create virtual parallel port on windows 7

    I have 2 new computers for my POS system but they do not have parallel ports on them for the receipt printers (Epson TM T88III). I knew this when I purchased them but was living under the hope that a simple parallel to USB cable would work, like it does for my old HP Laserjet 6p. Alas, I...

    cannot access internet but I'm online

    Thanks but in the end it was more expedient to backup and reinstall Windows I had done the various scans to determine if it was infected earlier (I should have mentioned it) but there was nothing evident. In any event, my problem is solved

    cannot open windows live mail error 0x80041161

    @ Linny - thanks for the suggestions. I ended up creating a new user on the computer and WLM opened without a problem. I then copied all files over to the new user and it works. The old user must have somehow been corrupt although this was the only glitch that has ever been encountered
