I have setup Internet Printing at my office so that one of our customers can print directly to our printers here. This is working fine with no issues printing from Windows application. They do have the need to be able to print from DOS to our printers here in our office. Because of the situation, I am not able to setup a trust between the two domains.

net use lptx: http://server/printer/.printer
Does not work (didnt' think it would, just tried it for kicks)

The other thought was to share that printer, and then just map lpt1 to the share. But this type of printer object cannot be shared.

If anyone has any other ideas, I would really appreciate hearing them! Thanks!
