How to use a shared printer on XP on Win 7?

I print on CD for a machine to Windows XP SP3 by using the Epsons Print CD employees. I recently installed a bigger HD, more memory and Win 7 Ultra 64 Bit N I have disabled the firewall on the computer of my Win 7 (temporarily) that allowed me to 'add printer' via IP.addr/sharename. I'm invited to the paswsword username, which I go without any problems. Next Win 7 search the printer driver. Since the XP machine doesn't have the driver for win 7 64 bit, it fails, check the update of the victory and ends by asking me to provide the *.inf file. I don't have any idea what inf file, he would like to see.

See if Epson has a Windows 7 compatible driver on their web site.  Install it and it should allow you to specify a printer connected to the network. Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

  • scanning using a shared printer

    Hello, I shared a printer to a network via Airport Extreme.  Nothing wrong with printing, but the problem is that I can't scan using the same printer.

    Is there anyway to scan a document using a shared printer? If so, how?

    Thank you.

    Scan is owner of all the trademarks so no USB device can provide a universal testing service.

    When you say shared printer is it connected via USB... then it may never work.

    If the printer has network and connected by ethernet or wireless, it is quite different... you just need the correct printer software.

  • How to make a shared printer on a Windows 7 64-bit machine accessible to a user on a 32-bit XP machine.

    Hello

    I have two Windows machines on a private working group, old stamp. A XP 32-bit, and a 64-bit Windows 7. The Windows 7 machine has a Canon printer attached. The problem is how to give the ability to print to the shared printer on the Windows 7 machine to a user on the XP machine.

    After a day of p____g about, I managed to get the feel of XP machine for the shared printer when I'm logged on two machines. But there is a problem.

    When my wife connects to the XP computer (instead of me), it can not print. His account apparently can 'See' the printer and everything seems to be in order when I discover the properties of the printer, but when it prints, it fails silently. There is no error; printing seems fine, but nothing happens. This happens if I print from Word, Notepad, or even simply the test page in the printer properties.

    I have another printer shared from the Windows 7 machine, and it can print on it without problem.

    The big problem is that I can't follow the 'normal' procedure to add a printer to the XP computer because it tries to install the drivers and then machine claims Windows 7 is not the correct drivers. This is true because the Canon Setup is fully automated and does not provide an option to install the 32-bit drivers alongside 64-bit drivers, so that customers can download.

    Sorry for the length of this post, but I am here in desperation. I lost count of the number of Web sites, I've been to, who claims to have an answer to this problem, to see any of the steps fail. Many solutions rely on the use of residential groups, which I can't do because XP does not know these (I don't think).

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Kind wishes, Patrick

    Check permissions to print on the XP machine (Fortunately, you have XP Pro):

    1. Disable Simple file so sharing is not off (in Windows Explorer > tools > Folder Options > view tab > uncheck "Use Simple file sharing" - low point in the list--> OK your way out)
    2. Start > printers and faxes
    3. Right click on the printer icon and select Properties
    4. Select the Security tab

    You can see who has permissions to the printer.  By default, the "Everyone" group has 'print' permission but none of the other permissions related to printing.  If you want to add a group or an individual user, click the ' Add ' button.  See the following for more information: http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/print_limit_accessw.mspx?mfr=true and the topics listed at the bottom of this page.

    To determine if a user is in a group (for example, is the user who cannot print a member of the "Everyone" group), click Start, right-click my computer and select manage.

    In the management console of the computer that opens, select "Local users and groups."  By double-clicking a user, you can select the "Member" tab and see what groups that user is a member.  Similarly, by double-clicking a group, you can see the members of this group.

  • How to use the shared variables to address several Watlow controllers on the same COM port

    Hello

    I am using LabVIEW 2010 to control 4 Watlow temperature controllers on a port com 3 are model 96 and 1 is a zone EZ controller. The controller has a unique modbus address and I'm trying to read from and write in the individual records (for example, setpoint closed-loop) variable shared help. I would return the data during playback (even if the data is displayed as invalid), but I am unable to change the value in the registry in writing. How can I be sure that's the Modbus server send commands to the correct controller?

    Chuck

    Hi Chuck,

    Sorry for the delay in response, I was away last week. You can create as many servers for Modbus on one COM port that you would like, the only problem you'd see is if you tried to call the port from different locations at the same time. With respect to the documentation to cross, I'd start with the tutorial below for a comprehensive manual of Modbus. There are also quite a few listed under Datalogging and supervisory control Module help topics that may be useful if you want to solve specific issues.

  • How to use CAlert to print an object.

      PMString message(tempString.c_str());

      CAlert::InformationAlert(message);

  • How to use UTL_FILE to print a JPG image in a CLOB

    I'm using Oracle 11.g.  I have an Oracle Apex application that generates automated emails. In the Apex, the user inserts a JPG image in a rich text field. This image is stored in a CLOB field. When it's time to send emails, Apex calls a stored procedure that reads the JPG image and stores it in a local variable called l_image_clob. The procedure of sending the embedded image with the rest of the body by e-mail to a list of users. (Note: this an embedded image and it is not an attachment). It all works very well.

    Now, I try to save the JPG image content stored in the l_image_clob variable in a JPG file on the server. The server is located on a Windows 7 platform.  The following code generates a file named correctly and the size of the file is correct, but it is not readable by the system. I get the error "is not a valid bitmap file" when I try to open it with Microsoft Paint. The image in the clob data looks something like: / 9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAgEAZABkAAD/4RXaRXhpZgAATU0AKg (a bunch more data) SSSSUpJJJJSkkkklKSSSSU / / Z

    How do I use utl_file to save the JPG image bank in the l_image_clob variable to a valid JPG file?

    -- Here's the code which creates the file that is "not a valid bitmap file"

      utl_file.fflush(l_file_handle);

  • How to use the capture and the print button

    I tried to figure out how to use the capture and the "print" button, or add or what you call. I press it and the whole page of a different color changes, so I try to cut the section I want but I don't know how to send it to the printer. Can someone help me with this. I'm not at savvy with tech stuff, but when I find a recipe or something and it doesn't have an option to print a certain area, I can't understand how to use it?

    Thank you

    Andi Starbuck

    That happens to me is, I click and drag to make a rectangle of yellow selection, and as soon as I raise my finger on the mouse button, the part I've selected is captured as an image, a new tab opens and preview before printing, the image display. I can use the installation of the Page or simply print. But if I close the preview, this temporary image vanishes and I'm back on the page where I started. You see something different?

  • How to use the Print Screen function?

    CTRL, Alt, and Prt SCr does not work.

    Hi Alan,

    Protected by password sharing is a more secure method of sharing files and folders on a network, and it is enabled by default. With share protected by active password, people on your network cannot access shared folders and printers on other computers, including public folders, unless they have a user name and password on the computer on which the printer or files shared. They will be asked to type a user name and password to access the printer or shared folders.

    I suggest you to return the item and check if it helps.
