net use lptN \\machine\printershare

Where N = port number, i.e. lpt1


OK, so far so good.

But my engineer says that he also has to take into account things like domain name and server name that have to be included in the path.

For example, we have an HP-4550N color laser printer, to connect to a domain named "Fairbanks" and a server called "Legend2". We would like to attach this printer by capturing LPT4. This needs to be a connection that will survive rebooting the workstation. What would the syntax be? That is, what command string would he type in at the workstation?
