That's precisely what I am trying to figure out. Do you know what the
option would be called? The application writes PCL direct to the LPT
port so if I can figure a way to block tty access (I don't think it
will be an issue the application does nothing else while it prints and
in the Windows environment if the printer is not setup correctly the
app just hangs). I am trying to avoid forwarding ports or using a
VPN... because if each user needs to have their own printer I think
this way (with TTY printing) will be easier to mange on the server
side.

. Possibly there is a way to get dosemu to do what the app never imagined. Dosemu should be able to block off access to the tty while it sends a passthru print job, even if the app tries to write to the tty at the wrong time, except I don't think it actually has the necessary options.
