You may have been using Anzio to connect to a Unix/Linux-based filePro.
Anzio has a WINPRINT command, which can be issued from the host (or in
other ways), that tells Windows to print a certain file, optionally
specifying the printer it should print on. Windows uses its file
association capability to determine what program should be used to do the
printing, based on the file name extensions. This is equivalent to the
action of, in Windows Explorer, a) right-clicking on the filename, and
selecting "Print", or b) dragging the filename to a particular printer's
icon.

We have also extracted this logic into a command-line program,
pwWinPrint.exe, which we can send you - free and unsupported.
