needs windows 7
needs serial port printer connection in vm
lots of barriers.
It may be possible to put the vm on the printer network and then print to that printer. This allows some network connectivity. may not be viable in our situation.

Install the files from bullzip start with gslite.exe then setup_bullzipPDFPrinter_9...exe Ignore any download it requests (uncheck the box) as gslite already installed the files.
Try to print to the new Bullzip PDF Printer. It will ask where to save a file.
