I've not tried this but here is what i'd try.

ofstrream YourStream;
YourStream.open(LP1:);  //FOR printer port.
// then use Pxxx like cout << "Hi there" << endl;

	If that works then in your case you need a driver;
	Pxxx: in place of LP1:

	so you must write your driver for dos.  Most 10year old books on dos
may clue you in on that.

	Regards Ian.
