teknora Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Hello, I have a wireless Brother printer in a small network (PC, printer, tp-link router+access point). I can print without any problem. But I can't print to file. I have tried all combinations available ports and connections. How can I create a virtual printer capable of printing to file. I am stuck, I will appreciate your replies and inputs very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensei Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 The most obvious way is to print to file in the application which you are using to create text file e.g. Word, WordPad, browser etc. etc. Then just use network public shared location to store these files.. Virtual Printer is software that you download and install on the server machine, which will be pretending true printer for clients. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_printer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_virtual_printer_software Client machine and client application connects to server machine, thinking it is true printer, but it is virtual printer, which just stores file on disk.
