Thanks to everybody who had suggestions about printing from Wingraf under
Win95.  I've not tried any of the ideas  dealing with printing to a printer
that is directly hooked to the computer.
 
However, I settled our biggest problem with printing from a HP printer
hanging off the network using the HP JetAdmin software.  This is probably a
very special case but thought I'd share the solution in case anyone else is
using JetAdmin.  From the documentation (which I should have read in the
first place):
 
 Issue:    DOS Printing and Printer Sharing
 
 Solution: Setting up a printer to be shared in Windows 95:
           1. Add a printer using the Add Printer Wizard.
           2. When the Wizard asks to you choose Local or Network,
              choose Local.
           3. Choose LPT1: as the printer port.  (This will be
              changed later).
           4. Do not print a self-test page.
           5. Finish the configuration.
           6. Right click on the new printer you created, and then
              click on Properties.
           7. Select the Details tab.
           8. Under Details, select Add Port.
           9. Select Other and HP JetDirect Port.
           10. Click on OK.  This launches the HP Port Monitor.
           11. At this point, you can enter the known Network Printer
               Name, the HP JetDirect Address, or perform a search to
               locate a printer.
           12. Click on Next once the printer is located.
           13. Enter the Port Name. DO NOT USE LPT1.  In order to use
               an HP JetDirect-attached printer from the DOS prompt,
               the Port Name must be named LPT2, LPT3, or above
               depending on what is defined in the [PORTS] section of
               the WIN.INI file.  Click Next.
           14. Click on Finish to complete the configuration.
 
Once I had this installed I got Wingraf to print to LPT2.  On a couple of
the computer I had to choose:
 
HP LaserJet HPGL Mode A size paper
 
instead of one of the:
 
HP LaserJet/DeskJet B&W
 
settings which seemed to give me problems.
