To Specify Local Port Names
The name of the local port depends on your operating system. For Windows, local printer ports are named LPT1 or LPT2. For Linux, they are named /dev/lp0, /dev/lp1, etc. Check with your operating system documentation or a system administrator if you are not sure.
To Specify a File to Print to
When specifying a file path on a Windows computer, do not specify the drive letter at the beginning of the path. You can print only to files located on the default drive, usually "C:". Instead, prefix the path with a '\' like this:
\myfiles\printjobs\work.prn
