Hello, Dosemu prints normally on that print. Issuing command dir>prn prints normally. DOS application that I use creates prn files and it worked well with postscript printers. I will take yur script into consideration, but I Think that I should put in dosemu.conf that it should print prn files. Please advise if I am wrong.
