A real stupid way is :

      copy *.* lpt1:

The disadvantages of this are:

      1) You got put the stuff you want to print in a directory by itself
         so you don't print unwanted stuff

      2) You don't get top-of-form on each file like in PRINT

      3) You can't use the machine for anything else
