All versions of K95 support local printing. Even those distributed
by Universities.

Version 1.1.15 has significant enhancements to the printing capabilities
supported in 1.1.7. The most important of which is the ability to
print directly to Window printer queues without requiring the user to
capture a port such as LPT1 to the queue. This capturing very often does not
work but that is the result of bugs or poor design in Windows 95, not
in Kermit-95.
