Does anyone know how I can redirect LPT1 output on my micro to a disk file? I got ahold of something called LPTX.COM that was supposed to hook BIOS Int 17, but this just kept either hanging my machine, (Northgate 286/12, DOS 3.3), after about 100 bytes, or not working at all. I removed all TSRs and that didn't help either. Anyone know of any nifty utility I can get my hands on? Thanks, Rick Gates

I just saw a blurb in PC WORLD (July 89, p. 86) for a product called
PrintRite. It's a print spooler that let's you print to disk. It's
$99.95 from Rite Software Inc., 4144 N. Central Expressway, Dallas, TX
75204, 1-800-331-6977.

I'm not speaking for the company, I'm just speaking my mind.
I have no relation to Rite Software, and have no idea how well
this product works or might suit your needs.
