I tried this and after setting up the printer to print to file, I was able to 
print a test page and it came out ok in the file.

However, once that was done, I tried printing using the rawmodetest.lpi project 
and I don't get the dialing asking for the file location and windows reports a 
printer error.

Is there somewhere in code that I should indicate the file location?

Never did this before, sorry.
