Can anyone explain how I can get a clarion/dos program to print to a USB (HP) printer? The app worked as long as I had a parallel cable/printer but as soon as I upgraded to a USB printer the program would no longer print. I am running Windows XP Pro SP2.

The problem with USB Devices – The USB Drivers are loaded/installed in – Windows Application – So you usually cannot not print from DOS – However you may be able to use the – DOS Window Application to run your application from the Windows environment, or use net command-
