LPD print server XP disk requirement

All,

I have a simple question. When you install the LPR (Unix Printing) service some machines require an xp installation cd, and others do not. I just want to know what causes this distinction, if there is a way to collect the files needed for situations when a xp cd is not feasible.

Thank you

-Tim

Many machines copy much of what is on the installation disc to a directory "i386" on the hard drive (or separate installation partition).  If the i386 folder exists and contains the necessary files and Installer knows where to look for him, then he should not request the installation of the media.

HTH,
JW

  • LaserJet P2015 PCL6: Problem with LJ P2015 PCL6 x 86 drivers for x 64 print server

    Hello, I am trying to add x 86 additional drivers for the print 2008R2 server, but seems the downloaded packages 'LJP2015-pcl6-pnp-win32-it' or 'ljp2015pcl6vista2k2008xp2003' does not contain the driver corrette (hppaew04.inf, hppcp504.inf) Server report "the specified location contains no pilot for the required processor architecture". I have to find a solution because some users have windows xp clients and to do printer. Thanks in advance Davide

    Resolved using an unusual way.

    The only driver for WinXP is was not aligned with the x 64 version, so it is not possible to install directly to the print server.

    I solved this way:

    install a printer as local device on the Windows XP client.

    the customer opened \\PRINT_SERVER\devices and printers

    right click on the printer

    at this point, begin the installation of the driver on the client, using the x 86 driver (not the UPD, but the native driver).

    On the server are now available for both x 64 and x 86 native printer driver.

    This workaround is only for the win2008 R2 on previous versions of Windows Server that this problem is not present.

    Hi Xaron,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP's Support.

    The printer model that you gave in your post, HP Officejet 4500 G510A made unsupported wireless or ethernet connectivity.  Without one of these methods of connectivity being available, there is no way taken in charge for the printer to communicate with a wireless device using the HP ePrint app. I've included a link to your printer's specifications.

  • Assessment capabilities of Windows print server for a large company automated printing solution...

    Hello

    I need a solution to print server for a large organization. Need your help in evaluating Windows print management for this purpose.

    The case:

    A centralized system correspondence generation will produce a "zip of PDF files" to print in various branches around the world. I expect to send the zipOfPDF to a centralized, Windows print server. From there on, it should be forwarded to respective branch local windows print server. I expect the following system:

    1. the centralized windows print server must be able to read zipOfPDFs and associated metadata.

    2 centralized windows print server must be able to route (spool) the zipOfPDF to respective branches (metadata will include details of the branch). (Indicate if the custom coding is necessary for her or can be supported out of the box?)

    3. local windows print server receive the zipOfPdf and extract the metadata.

    4. extract the zip file and extract the files PDF.

    5 read the metadata and move to designated PDF printer files (metadata will be printer details)

    6 set the priority of print according to the metadata set. (The metadata will be priority printing details).

    7. create a record/report after printing the zipOfPDF.

    Indicate if

    1. it can be supported by the Windows print server instead of first? What operating system/printing system will be necessary?

    2. If so, is - all of this can be supported by out-of-the-box configurations?

    3. If no, what any custom coding may be needed and technology?

    4 propose a scheme of it if possible.

    We have a HP Color Laserjet CP5225. The printer has USB connectivity. There is a network (RJ-45) port, but it is disabled.

    We want to get the printer to print directly through the network.

    The HP Web site suggests Print Server HP Jetdierct ew2500 (HP CP 5225 is in the printer compatibility list). However ew2500 is not available.

    You should be able to use any wired usb print server.  The server does provide a connection to the usb port on the printer so if you can communicate with the server via ip, then you just to load the driver and connect the prnter as a local tcp/ip printer.

  • Server 2008 - adding the role of print server to access the tools of PrintBRM?

    Hello

    I have Windows Server 2008 with about 50 + printers currently installed. This server is configured to use Terminal Server services.

    I want to access the PrintBRM tool to export this configuration for the additional Terminal servers, but I don't have the active print server role.
    If I add the role of server printer so I can use PrintBRM, will this affect my configuration current impression? I will start adding printers through print management?
    I appreciate the help!

    Figured it out.

    Another server in 2008 with the role of print server already installed can remotely back up and restore a Server 2008 configuration of the printer using printbrm.

  • OfficeJet 7612: I need drivers for copy on print server - do not install it on any machine

    All the drivers on the website seem to settle on the machine that I use. I have a print server that is Windows 2008 CORE so I connect from my machine to the server to configure each printer; and I need to have the driver installed on the server where it loads the driver on every machine that attaches to the printer.  I need a zip file containing the driver files and inf so I have copied on the server and each machine will install them automatically when they connect to the printer.  The HP Web site account EXE files to be installed on the machine, that I'm working on so I can't find the INF files and the driver that needs to go on the server.   It's very frustrating.  How can I get just the drivers?

    Hello

    You would need the program standard executable installation used for an another Windows operating system, but the method of installation must be done manually.

    Download the following drivers on your desktop and extract it in a place of choice (with Winrar or 7Z),
    Or by running the file, once the configuration dialog box open Explorer files, type %temp%, and then press enter and open the folder extracted from HP that begins with 7z (e.g. 7zS1234):

  • HP UPD PCL5/PCL6 W2k8R2-Print Server issues a one by a particular software

    Hi all

    We have a print server W2k8R2 and we want to use only the HP - UPD (PCL5/PCL6), for all HP network printers.

    Some printers alongside some with PCL5 PCL6. Printing from Windows is no problem on PCL5/6.

    But we ge issues with printing form a particular software (Compuware Uniface).

    The printer works with PCL6, everything is ok, Windows/Uniface.

    But if the printer works only with the UPD PCL5, we get a few small problems.

    -WIndows print jobs

    Uniface - print Don t: instead of the text, we get only a special character (@7\? *'´_ -! %&/\} [])

    and it's unusable and useless

    What is the difference between PCL5 and PCL6? because in Windows, it works.

    Can someone help me?

    In this case, if it is only with interactions with this specific program, then it is likely that this program is not designed to be used in the way that you use it in. If the printer does not have any problems with other functions or applications, then the software and the mechanics of the printer work properly. The problem seems to be that the program you are using is not properly able to communicate information to the machine, and what information gets the machine is not able to be understood by the printer.

    Is that correct or is there more information that might change the analysis of the issue in this case?

    Let me know!

  • Printer continues to stop & requires the system restore?

    We noticed a delay problem where printer stop printing.  What happens with XP and Windows7, but they show different symptoms:

    With XP, the printer also show online.  However, to get anything to print.  It affects all users, is not corrected by updated printer spooler restarts, restart, change USB port, cable changes or printer resets.  No errors in the logs.

    With Windows7, printers go offline or completely disappear and stop the spooler.  You can restart the spooler and printers reappear for a short period, but they disappear in a few seconds.  As noted above, nothing seems to correct the problem.  It's just generic elements in newspapers, but nothing specific.

    The only thing that solves the problem is a system restore?  We can link to problems individuals patch.

    Does anyone else know this?

    The only thing that helps for XP and Win 7 is the system restore?  Looks like corrupted printer drivers (even though it's a bit strange that you experience on the two operating systems).

    Simply download and install a fresh printer driver is not enough.  You have to clean the old one.

    For XP, see His Article.  The critical step is step 4.

    For Windows 7, replace step 4 with the following text:
    Restart the print spooler
    Open devices and printers
    Select a printer (click only)
    Click the print server properties in the toolbar at the top of the window
    Click the tab drivers
    Remove the suspect drivers

    If you can not do what the above because the print spooler is not running, after return and specify which version of Windows 7 you have.

  • Manage print server permissions in Windows XP

    In Windows 7, there is a permission "Managing the server" available in the properties of the print-> tab security server. If it is enabled for a particular person or group, the user/group can can remotely add shapes to the print server (programmatically using addForms call on the shared printer) and do other operations, which are generally not allowed to the non-owners.

    There is a similar option in Windows XP? I want to grant this access to remote users in XP.
