    Does anyone know how to print a PLT file inside DOS, with the "copy /b filename.plt port" string in a printer connected by USB? What port name should I specify in the string?

    Besides using GoPlot, you can share the printer. Then use the UNC path for
    the share. For example on one of my home systems I do it like this...

    copy filename.plt /b \\pcname\printersharename

    But give GoPlot a try, it's a lot simpler in the long run.

    Hope this helps.
