I am using Windows 95 and I want to print from dos prompt. We have a printer
hooked up on the network.

 When I use enscript -2r -P\\HP_Network_Printers\(printer_name) test.c. 
I get error saying \\HP_Network_Printers cannot be opened. I tried to copy a 
file by giving following command "copy test.c \\HP_Network_Printers\(printer_name). 
I get following message "The computer name specified in the network path
cannot be located". 

When I open up my network neighborhood I see the above printer and the name.
I do not have problem printing from windows application such as word/notepad.

Some people here have NT and they can print using the above method.

Thanks for your help.

Hiren
