I'm just posting this as a quick question:  Can GO32 handle printing to
LPT2: if LPT2: is in fact a network device?  I don't know much about the PC
environment here and before I start poking around in depth I want to know if
GO32 has this functionality at all.

LPT2: opens just fine with fopen("LPT2:", "w") but then all output to it
disappears...  If I spool a copy to disk, exit the program and copy (i.e.
with DOS copy) the file to LPT2: it prints fine.

Thanks in advance.
