What if you change the access rights to the server printer and give Everyone access rights?

Did you originally run net use on the Server?? &nbsp;It needs to be run on each workstation that you want to run the program from. &nbsp;<br />

A fresh start sometimes helps. I am not sure what happened but deleting all the printers and net use statements (for the 3rd time) it started working. One of those that just does not make sense.<br />

I just installed SBS 2003 Standard and new workstations (XP pro) for a client that uses a DOS application.The printer works fine when printing to the Windows share. The vender recommended mapping the shared printer to LPT2. I used net use LPT2: \\server01\epsondfx /PERSISTENT:YES. I tried to do a dir &gt;&nbsp;lpt2 and got a access denied message. To work around the problem we hung the printer off a workstion and the net use lpt2 works. The Client would really to to leave it on the server. Any help would be appreciated.<br />

Thanks, <br />

Unable to print from DOS app to lpt2 after net use command.

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).
