Hello all,
I would like to be able to create a script that will copy a plot or print
file (plt or prn) to a shared printer on the network (i.e
\\printserver\printer), and perhaps even to a port (i.e. LPT1). However, I
have been unable to find a way to copy a file to either a printer or a port.
Can anyone point me in the right direction.

Regards,
Gordon Price

This works for me.

Set WshShell=CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
WshShell.Run "command.com /c copy d:\path\file.txt lpt1",0,true
Set WshShell=nothing

Duh!!! That should have been right in front of my nose, but I was looking
the wrong way!! I guess I was trying to do everything with pure WSH object
model. BTW, via another source I found a link to some code for VB that will
send a file to a printer defined in windows. I may try to make a VB dll that
could be run from WSH, but your approach will allow me to do what I have
been trying to do for some time.

Thanks again!

Gordon
