Dos To Usb Printing Software Free Download With Crack

What does DosPrint do to run a DOS program in Windows and print to an installed printer?

DosPrint is a freeware program that allows you running DOSprograms on modern Windows computers (64 bit too) and printingto Windows printers (including USB, GDI and PDF virtualprinters) by installing specialist third party programsspecifically designed to solve these common DOS problems.

The DosPrint.exe program checks if your Windows version is 32 bit or 64bit (in the last case a DOS emulator is needed torun a DOS program, otherwise Windows itself canalready run it), then it suggests you the best additions for yourspecific computer.

At that point youjust have to accept them or change them with your preferred choices andclick OK -> Start,then DosPrint will automatically download, installand configure the programs you selected to run yourDOS applicationsand/or print to the already installed Windows printers withouthaving to manually download, install, and learn howto configure them (that usually would mean manually editing huge textfiles).

Yes, with a couple ofclicks you can have DosPrint making all the job for you in a fewminutes.

WhenDosPrint has finished you justhave to:

1. Open the installed DOS emulator (or the Standard WindowsCommand Prompt if you aren't running a 64-bit Windows version and a DOSBox emulator is not needed)
2. Run your DOS program
3. Print to your Windows printers

Yes,your DOS program can even print to the same printers you're usedto use with Ms-Word or Internet Explorer, including virtual printers,like PDF writers / e-mailers.

Why do I need additional software to run DOS programsand print to Windows printers?

Running:

Whenrunning a DOS program on a modern Windows computer you might see amessage like 'Unsupported 16-Bit application' or 'Thisapp can't run on your PC', or similar.

That'sbecause DOS programs are 16 bit while most of newer computers nowadaysare 64 bit, so they cannot natively run a DOS programwithout a DOS emulator.

Printing:

Ifinstead you'realready running your DOS program through the Standard Windows CommandPrompt (on a 32 bit Windows version), but you've seen the error message'write fault error writing device PRN' or'ERROR TERM/0 Print error' (or similar) whenprinting from your DOS application, that's because DOSprograms could only print toLPT(parallel) ports (usually LPT1:, that's an aliasfor PRN:) or,in rare cases, COM (serial) ports, and moderncomputers don't integratethose ports anymore.

Printingnowadays is performed via USBprinters, network/IP/wireless printers or evenvirtual printers, like PDF writers or faxprinters

Atthe DOS age, USB,IP, Wireless, virtual ports were simply unknown, sono DOS program can address them directly.

How the DOS problems above are solved by DosPrint?

Likesaid earlier, DosPrint solves the 2 problems by installing additionalprograms designed for those purposes:

Running:

Tosolve the running problem there's a widely known,free, DOS emulator, named DOSBox.

DOSBoxwas originally designed to keep using popular DOS gameson modern 64 bit Windows computers, so it lacks of some importantfeatures for business DOS programs, like parallelports (LPT) support for printing (games usually don't need to print).

Forthis reasonfrom that project derived several variants, like DOSBox MegaBuild 6,DOSBox SVN Daum, vDos, vDosPlus, DOSBox-X(and others) intended to add missing features tothe original DOSBox emulator and make it functional for business DOSprograms.

So, with a DOSBoxvariant that does support parallel ports you can run the DOS programand use a DOS compatibleprinter (if you still have one) even on the 64 bit machine.

Printing:

If instead youonly have modern printers installed on your Windows computer (32 or 64bit), connected to ports that DOS cannot address directly, you cansolve the printing problem by the Printfilsoftware, that captures the data sent to the LPT orCOM port by the DOS program and redirects it even tothe USB, GDI, IP, PDF printers onWindows (physical or virtual).

Printfilalso adds modern functions to DOS printing, like printpreview, background image merging (usefulto print an invoice including the formthat previously was intended to be preprinted by typography forexample), PDF automatic export / e-mailing andothers.

Theadditionalprograms above are Freeware or Shareware(this means you don't have to pay touse them, or you can freely use them for a trial period, then you'rerequired to pay a registration fee to continue using them) but it maybe hard to decide which are the best ones for yourspecific case (do Ireally need a DOS emulator for my own computer? - Doesit have tosupport LPT ports?, COM ports?, both?), and even oncedecided, you'veto learn how to configure them; usually by manually editinglong textfiles and see if the changes works by trial and error.

DosPrint does this job for you, byautomatically downloading, installing and configuring the programs(above)you've selected to solve your DOS problems.

So, in a fewminutes you'll solve your DOS problems and print your reports, then youcan relax and eventually study the manuals to fine tune some DOSparameters qietly.

DosPrintdoesn'tneed to be installed on your machine. Just downloadand run it (it's thesingle DosPrint.exe program that does the job).
