BEFORE running FIX.cmd, add SET SHELLHANDLESINC=25
to the CONFIG.SYS and reboot!  This increases the default
number of file handles each PM process can allocate (default
is probably 20).  It's undocumented, and can fix some FixTool
(SERVICE.exe, etc.) problems, especially for FP13 & FP14.
May not be needed for FP15.

Hi Ed,
Can confirm the print01.sys works with the following:

Description:
1 port PCI parallel card.

Part #:
PCI-PT9805-1P

Chipset:
NetMos Nm9805CV

Config.sys:
BASEDEV=print01.sys /shr /irq /v /f

Notes:
Individual use of lpt1 & lpt2 has been tested.
Simultaneous use of lpt1 & lpt2 has not been tested as I don't have 2
printers.
