Hi,
Try opening a command prompt (Start->Run, then type cmd).

In the command prompt, type
Copy FILENAME \\PCNAME\SHAREDPRINTERNAME

Where Filename is the full path to the file, PCName is
the name of your
computer, and SharedPrinterName is the share name of your
printer (your
printer must be shared).

This will print the file.

I NEED TO KNOW WHAT I AM DOING WRONG. The file in
question is "NVIDIA corporation.prn" Entering anything
other than just PRN as the filename gets me nothing, but
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner>PRN \\hp\Printer
yields "The syntax of the command is incorrect."
Please be as specific as possible in your clarification.
Thank-you. Ron
