I have a client who is using an old DOS machine for accounting and have virtualized the XP machine that was being used for it. I've been having issues over trying to get it to print from this VM to the printer in there office, I have added a PCI parallel port card and the host can recognize the card as LPT1 and the VM will recognize the card as well as an LTP1 port. I've been unsuccessful just trying to perform a test print from the guest and have been able to test print from the host machine (Windows 10) and am getting an error when I start the VM that the "LPT1" device is being used by another program. Even tho I know its not being used. Any input on this would be great as I've been trying to troubleshoot this the past few days. Thanks!
