Printing from DOS programs to Windows printers is pretty easy if you have an old Windows version running on a VirtualBox virtual machine.
Problems come if you have a plain DOS virtual machine installed on VirtualBox.
This video shows how to redirect the LPT1: port on the DOS VirtualBox machine and send the DOS prints to any installed Windows printer.
Preparation:
- VirtualBox settings
- Redirect COM1 to a Raw File
- Setup Printfil to check for that file
Let's go:
- Start the DOS virtual machine
- Mode LPT1: = COM1:
That's all. Now:
- Print from a DOS program to LPT1:
- Close everything
- Printfil captures the DOS print
