Default Redirect LPT1 to COM4 virtual port

I have connected satisfactorily my CPU with my matrix printer having used a
virtual Bluetooth port .

Now, is there some way to redirect LPT1 port to my COM4 virtual port?.
Happens that frequently I use a DOS software that only has option to print
to LPT port, and the impression options throu Bluetooth are only by COM
ports.

Devices:
- Belkin Bluetooth USB adapter,
- BlueTake Bluetooth printer adapter (parallel)
- Epson FX1170 printer
- Widcomm BTW software
- Win98 SE

Thaks in advance,

Bitman

Here's an example (I haven't tried it, and I'm sure there are many others).
