Hello, I printed from Dosemu before in earlier versions. Thus, I do not think that there is compatibility issue. When I want my DOS application to print on screen it creates .prn file. Indeed, I would be happy if I could print that .prn file to my printer :) I do notr have so7uce of that application. Otherwise, I would publish it.
