I am currently in the process of writing a program in C++. I want to use it toprint stuff but Idont know how to find out what port the printer is using or how to capture it to one. I am used to having it on LPT1 but it doesn't really matter which one as long as i know. I remember that at one point I managed to find a list of all the ports and what was captured to each one. I used this to do it on a different computer. But I can't remember how i did it. If someone knows how to get to this list or some equivalent please explain.if it helps, the printer is a usb lexmark x5690 all-in-one.
