I appologize if this is not the right place to post the above question.  But, who knows if I get the response.

I have a 386-20 Zenith currently attached to the network with ethernet card.  What I would like to do is to be able to print from any DOS application to the network printer either directly or through a redirection.  For this, I am looking for a device driver that allows me to map any LPT# port to the network port such that if I print to that port, it will be redirected to any of the designated network printer.  Please send you response to sumargoh@serss0.fiu.edu

Thank you.
