subject: ACAD R13 Win printing

I have a Pentium 133 with 32megs of RAM DOS 6.22/WFW 3.11 and AutoCAD R13 for 
DOS/Windows with the c4 patch, running ACAD in Windows.  The problem I am 
having is that my computer is shared with 8 others to an HP Laserjet II p 
printer.  Since the upgrade from R12 I can not print.  It seems that ACAD is 
trying to print directly to my LPT1 port and DOS/WFW have redirected it to 
COM1 for the shared printer.  I have tried just about everything I can think 
of to get this to print.  HELP!  I was told by an ACAD Guru that there is a 
way to make ACAD R13 for Windows print hardware or software, and I am in 
hardware mode.  However I can not find where you would change this in setup.  
I think I need it to print software controled so that the print manager in 
Windows will pick up my plots.  BTW all my other software in DOS or Windows 
prints.
Please post any help here or call my BBS directly at the origin line.
Thanks.
