I have a barcode label printer with only a serial connection to lpt1. I also have a dos application that needs to print to a network printer using a captured lpt1. There isn't an option to print from this application to lpt2. Is there a way to change the physical printer port to point to lpt2 instead of lpt1?

Thanks
Mark
 
I found it. I changed the port in device manager to be lpt2 instead of lpt1.
