RE: Have a dos program that I want to print remotely
When I wrote "\\tsclient", that's exactly what I meant, as this is the UNC
path to the client device for the current session. If you have the client
printer shared as HPLJ, you'd do :
NET USE LPT1: \\tsclient\HPLJ /persistent /yes
To verify that it's available, browse My Network Places (or Network
Neighborhood) -> Entire Network -> Client Network -> \\tsclient (or \\client
if using Citrix).

RE: Have a dos program that I want to print remotely
When I tried that command came back with "you used an option with an invalid
value". Just want to verify that I am doing this command line using the
office computer start button when I am logged on using the RDP, not the start
button on my laptop. When I searched (my network neighborhood on the office
machine) there is no option for entire network client network. Am I missing
something. Also I tried a ":" instead of a "/" in front of the yes that came
back with system error 87

Thanks for the time I will keep trying different things until I figure it out.
