I am doing some testing and i really need a lpt based printer but i dont have one so i need some way for my usb001 printer can somehow be made into a virtual lpt2 port

i seen a way to do it before, something about mapping a network printer or soemthing but i don't remeber how to do it

I didnt fail, I just found 10,000 ways that don't work

If no-one gives your an answer to a question you have asked, consider:- Is your question clear.- Did you ask nicely.- Are you showing any effort to solve the problem yourself 
