I have a form on Intranet that I want different computers in diferent departments, to print at my printer through the net. Some body said that using the
net use lpt1 \\"root" comand I would change their default printer to mine. Is that correct. If it is not, How do I that? And if it is, what's the command to revert each computer to the printer they were formaly using once my form prints?

You could do a NET USE LPT2 \\_server_\_printer if the app can print to lpt2 To disconnect NET USE LPT1 /DELETE To look at the syntax NET USE /?
