So guys if you recall a function very widely used in Windows 98 DOS command i.e “copy *.* lpt1” and this sends the specific files to the printer attached to the port LPT1. But with the insertion of USB ports this command has become worthless as most of the printer nowadays comes only with a USB data cable as these are much faster and manageable in comparison with the port LPT1. But what if anyone still need that utility to print files using the *.prn files. Don’t panic yaar!!!!! When there is a problem comes then a solution always remains but we have to capable of finding that. I have found a small software with an easy user interface which is capable of printing through *.prn files to any printer attached to any port. The only thing which should be kept in mind that files should be made by the compatible printer or the same printer driver which will be finally used to print files.

And here comes the software Heidelberg Digimaster Print files Downloader .

So I assume you have downloaded the application and installed it on the system now run it from the start menu you will get the first screen as shown below to choose the default printer ( if it doesn’t then set it from the printer tab from top left position)

Now go to next tab i.e. files and choose the files which you have to be printed. But before you go for a print set the printer language to PCL and modify printer settings to no unless it will produce an error.

Keep in mind this software is not only capable of printing .prn but alos support many formats *.pcl, *.bin, *.ps or even from *.pdf files.
