Windows\Command is specific to Win95/89/Me. Use C:\Windows instead. And change a
little that batch file like one of these:
cd /d %1
dir > lpt1
or
dir %1 > lpt1
You can avoid creating any batch file, just enter this command instead of c:\...\printcmd.bat:
%windir%\system32\cmd.exe /c dir %1 > lpt1
You can avoid using regedit, open C.Panel -> Folder Options -> File Types, scroll
to File Folder, Advanced, New, insert "Print" and the command above.

I tried the above in XP Pro and it does not work. A cmd session opens & closes quickly
with no printout.
