Hi,

I am new to the net, and have an MS-DOS related question.  If the 
question has been asked before, please excuse me.

I am trying to find a way to redirect parallel printer output to a file.
I would like to run something to redirect the output to a file, then
I would like to run a program that sends output to PRN, then when the 
program completes, I would like to reset printer output to the printer
(or reboot, whichever is appropriate).

Does anyone know of a command in MS-DOS 3.3 or of an available utility
that will do this for me?

Thanks in advance
