Configure Printer Port??

I am trying to install Create PDF. I have reached a screen that tells me to put some information into the Configure Printer Port. What Configure Printer Port? Where??

Hisami,
I just tried that.
The printer preference on the control panel was set as "p ortrait", so I changed it to "landscape", but it still created the pdf in "portrait".
So I changed the printer preference, and I checked the printer properties, and they both were set for "landscape", but the pdf was still created in "port rait".
Is there any other setting , which may be the problem??
Thank you.

Wireless Print Server (DPR-1260) - Manually Configure Printer Port

I am trying to get my DPR-1260 Wireless Print Server (PS) installed, and need help with manually configuring the printer port (per Dlink).
Status:
A) Before trying to install the PS, I was able to easily install (2) USB printers, see them, and print to them.
B) My new IMAC is hardwired to the router.
*Recent Actions:*
1) I've worked with Dlink and have verified that my network (my new IMAC, and my wife's wireless laptop (OS 10.39) see the PS (hooked directly to the router). It's IP address is 192.168.0.102 .
2) I hooked both printers to the PS, and the address sees both printers as installed, and provide with LPR information (both printers are now hooked to the PS). Dlink does not guarantee printer compatibility, but says that since the site sees the printers, gives me LPRs, that the probability is good that they will be compatiable.
3) My new IMAC sees this address in both OS and in XP (thru VM Fusion). My laptop (10.3x) also sees this address. However, I'm not able to install this printer.
4) Per Dlink, I need to manually configure the printer port to install the PS.
5) Dlink kept sending me to the Print Utility, but from what I see, that does not exist in 10.5.
How do I manually configure the printer port to see the PS?
Now, I am stuck, and help?
Many thanks

As DLink have said, you will have to manually configure a LPR queue to connect to your printers. The print utility in 10.5 is the Print & Fax util in System Preferences. Open this and choose to Add . Select IP and then LPR. Enter the ip address of the PS. Then you will need a queue name for the respective USB ports, such as P1 and P2, or something similar. Hopefully the DLink info mentions this so that you can print to the desired printer.
The final bit of info you will need to know is whether the printer driver for each printer will work in this type of network. If either of them is a Canon then there is a good chance you will not be able to use supplied drivers. These types of connections require a third party driver, like Gutenprint, which is usually installed by default. If you are not sure, then please tell us which brands and models of printer you have.

How Do I Redirect LPT1 Printer Port to 'LOCAL Printer' in Windows 7

I have previously redirected LPT1 Port to a 'Network Printer' as well as 'Print Server' with NO PROBLEMS.
However, I have NOT been able to redirect LPT1 Port to a 'LOCAL' PRINTER. I have already set up:
- new HP Laser Printer (tested, no problem printing in Windows)
- the printer is SHARED, shared name is "HPLaser" (tested by viewing Shared Printer Name and Computer Name in DOS)
- bat file as --> Net
use Lpt1 \\DkTop1\HPLaser /persistent:yes
(I checked to ensure the 'Computer
Name' and the 'Shared
Printer Name' are correct. Tested by running bat command, no
error message)
When printing in DOS and viewing "What's Printing" from Printer Icon,
- the DOS print job appears immediately as "spooling",
- then "printing" and "USB001" Port.
So, it appears to be printing from the DOS application, also
note NO ERRORS from DOS Program or Windows but it does NOT print.
The only difference between the 'Local Printer' setup and
the 'Print Server Printer' setup is,
the 'PRINT SERVER'
goes to an "IP Address w/Standard TCP/IP Port"
and the 'LOCAL PRINTER'
goes to "USB001 Virtual Printer for . . .".
IS THERE A PROBLEM in
SETTING UP THE 'LOCAL PRINTER'
with 'USB001 VIRTUAL PRINTER' Port???
If so, how do I resolve? If not, please note what is the problem(s) and resolution(s). Thanks.

Hi,
you install the new printer, which port you choose to use? What do you mean by saying "'USB001 VIRTUAL PRINTER' Port"
here?
As the printer is configured locally, there is no need to redirect the port to it.

If possible please take a try to delete the printers holding the Lpt1 port, then reconfigure the local printer following the instructions provided above.
Hope this may help

Can't change printer port on Windows 8.1 and Server 2012 R2

1. Install "Lexmark X646e Class Driver" using a in-box print driver (i.e. one comes with the Windows installation base) .
2. Go to "Printer properties" -> "Port"
3. Select a custom monitor port, and the following error occurs in Event Viewer.
An error occurred while configuring print queue 'Lexmark X646e Class Driver'. Printer driver 'Lexmark X646e Class Driver' may not be used in conjunction with a non-inbox port monitor.
Same steps applied on Windows 8 and Server 2012, and not issues found. The restriction/limitation is newly added in Window 8.1 and Server 2012 R2.
Changing to a custom monitor port after printer driver installation is very important for us.
How can we solve or workaround the above issue, so it can behave like Windows 8 and Server 2012?

What Port Monitor just so I can bubble this information to some others?
Alan Morris Windows Printing Team
Hi Alan:
We developed a custom printing system, which involved the following configurations:
1. Create a custom port monitor on server 2012 r2.
2. Change an existing print queue to use this custom port monitor, and share this print queue.
3. All workstations will print to this shared print queue on the server.
The goal is to manage/monitor the print information in StartDocPort for all printing for instance. This is what we've been doing for a long time.
Now we upgraded our system from server 2012 to server 2012 R2, but we can't change the port monitor to our ones anymore.
I've tried the Type3 printer driver, such as Brother Color Type3 Class Driver, unfortunately it didn't work if the installation is using "Add a printer", and select the driver from the list.
The only way to make it work is to install the printer driver using the one downloaded from the vendor's website, this will bypass Windows "Add a printer".
Is there any chance we can make this to behave like server 2012 or earlier? Modify registry keys?
Cheers
Steven

How should I develop Level Controller using Parallel port(Printer port)

I need to develop a level controller using parallel port of my computer with a third party Data Acquisition Device. Is it possible to do it with In and out port vi in labView 7.1. Please guide me how can should I configure these Vis to write control data and then receive level transmitteed data through parallel Port(Printer port).

Presario CQ56 win7x64 printer ports gone

I have a presario cq56 win7 x64 that will not print. The printer ports have disapeared from all loaded printers. I get no error mssages. I have run troubleshooters from microsoft and hp and cannot identify the problem. I have tried to reload the printers, no luck. Please help.

In the Devices and printers window, across the top, there is an option "Print Server Properties". This does list a bunch of printer ports. My printer is listed on a usb port. (I have attempted to connect wirelessly and usb). When I attempt to configure the usb port listed, "an error occured during port configuration. This operation is not supported." The TCP/IP port settings open, and with the exception of the port name/ip address, are all configured the same: Protocol - raw, Raw settings - port number 9100, LPR settings - none, SNMP status Enabled - community name - public, SNMP Device Index - 1
There are six TCP/IP ports listed at this point, I have only one brand new Canon printer (MG5300) to get working.
I found another port on the list; CNBJNP_888717B1A30A Canon BJ Network Port. I cannot view properties, or configure this port.
I have entertained a system restore, but cannot go back far enough to get past the problem. (Wife says end of July)
Thanks so much for your help, I'm lost on this one

Create TCP/IP Printing Port for OfficeJet Pro 8600

I need to print across a hardware firewall (from wireless to wired networks, different subnet), so I need to create a standard TCP/IP printing port in Windows 7. Does the printer use RAW on TCP port 9100 or are there other settings I need to configure?
Thanks.

Hello,
I see that you're having an issue with the printer not being able to print over a firewall.
I believe the easiest way to do this would be to unblock the ports rather than adding a printer through windows.
Router settings for HP Printers
Router should be broadcasting in “G Mode only”. This normally means turning “Mixed mode” off.
For Dual Band Routers, make sure they have disabled the 5ghz band and should only be operating on 2.4ghz
Mac filtering should be disabled
Security type should be “WPA 2 Personal”
On some routers they have a “hardware firewall”, so the below ports would need to be opened
UDP- 5353 67 80 547 53 5222 5223 5355 137 138 139 443 427 161 514 3702 5357 445 3910 Port range: 9999 - 65535
TCP- 445 80 68 8080 443 137 138 139 427 5222 5223 9100 445 515 161 9101 9102 9103 9110 9220 9290 9280 9500

Changing Network Printer Port IPs

Thanks fo rthe reply...
Im not wanting to change the IP address of the printers ON the printers via script, I'm trying to change the IPs of the printers ON the computers. All the printing is currently done via direct IP print to the printers so when I change the printer's IP i would have to change EVERY computer's printer configuration....I'm trying to avoid touching every computer.

Spicers...
I've seen a lot of posts on removal of printers via script that are deployed via script/GPO but my environment is a little different.
I'm in the process of re-IPing the network due to growth and implementing multiple subnet/VLANs.
What I need to do is to change the printer Port IPs because the printers will be moved to a different subnet. Is there a way to automate that via script so I don't have to touch each computer? And the printers are not currently deployed via GPO they are manually created.
My ideal solution would be to just go through and remove them via script and deploy them via script...thoughts?

Cannot reconfigure printer port

Hello, I have a bunch of HP printers on our network. We recently made some changes and everything got new IP addresses. I went to all our computers that had the drivers installed and reconfigured the port with the new IP addresses.
There is one printer that is not responding though.
It is a Business Inkjet 2300 DTN. I actually have two of these printers side by side.
On Printer A I went to configure the port and replaced the old IP address with a new one. Clicked okay and everything worked perfectly.
On Printer B I went to configure the port but instead of an IP address it had the host name. I tried checking the box to always print even if the IP changes but it says the printer is offline. I also tried changing it to the IP address of the printer but when I do and click okay, and then go back to configure it to verify, it has the host name again so it didn't actually save my change.
The LCD on the printer says Ready. I'm 100% certain the IP address is correct. I can connect to the web interface of that printer just fine with my browser.
When I print a configuration page the 2nd page shows the proper IP address and gateway on our network.
I have tried powering down the printer disconnecting and reconnecting it to the network but no go.

Having the printer's host name in the port monitor is often preferred since the monitor can usually resolve the correct IP address of the printer before printing.
Does the printer with the host name not work with a particular PC after the IP address changed?
One recommendation is to power down the PC, disconnect the network cable, then turn on the PC. In this state, you may be able to change the port configuration.
Another option is to install a new port monitor the PC via the "Add Printer" method from the Printer folder (delete the existing printer queue first though). Just remember to use local printer rather than network printer in the setup wizard.

Problem when we created the managed server to configure different ports.

I am trying to configure different ports for admin console and my communication service as we can’t share admin port to the outside world.
So that only admin can access admin console using admin port.
And out side clients can access my webapplication using different port.
For this i have created the managed server in weblogic.and I deployed the application on managed server.
Now admin server is running on 8001 port and my Communication Service application is running on 7001 port.
But when I tried to configure MBeans related to myCommunicationServiceApplication those were disapper on admin console. And the other wlng services are appearing on admin console.
1. Since my application deployed on managed server MBeans registration happened from myapplication hence it’s disappear on admin console.
Now If I want to configure Mbeans (related to my communication service) how can I configure it?
2. My communication service using configurationStore module and other wlng services.
When I tried to start my application on managed server I got the below error:
<Apr 28, 2009 12:22:44 PM IST> <Error> <Deployer> <BEA-149231> <dscp11166.TechMahindra.com> <Unable to set the activation state to true for the application 'wlng_nt_qualcomm_active_mediation [Version=1.0]'.
com.bea.wlcp.wlng.api.storage.configuration.ConfigurationException: Configuration store module is not available.
3. I tried to target all wlngResources to manged server by editing config.xml file.
Then all wlng services disappears on admin console. If this is the case how can I configure container/account services on wlng?
I have created the Basicweblogic domain.
Below is the config.xml for reference.
"QualcommServer" is managed server name.
Can any one please suggest me how to configure this kind of scenarios?

How to configure a port channel with VLAN trunking (and make it work..)

We're trying to configure a port channel group with trunked ports to connect a NetApp HA pair. We want to create two data LIFs and connect them to the switch stack. We are trying to create 2 data lifs, one for cifs and one for nfs that are on different vlans.
We want the same ports to be able to allow multiple vlans to communicate. (trunked)
These data lifs should be able to fail over to different nodes in the HA pair and still be able to communicate on the network.
What this means is that we have to connect 4 ports each for each node in the NetApp HA Pair to the switches and create a port channel of some type that allows for trunked vlans. When we configure the ports, the configuration is as follows (below):
We are only able to configure an IP on one of the vlans.
When we configure an IP from another vlan for the data lif, it does not respond to a ping.
Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong on the Cisco switch?

Our problem was fixed by the storage people. They changed the server end to trunk, and the encapsulation / etherchannel.
I like all the suggestions, and they probably helped out with the configuration getting this to work.

To my knowledge, no one has gotten AA 7 to work on Win 7. A few have succeeded with AA8. AA9 is the minimum certified to work on Win 7. You will likely have to upgrade for Win 7.

TCP/IP Printer ports - HELP PLEASE

I have a large inkjet printer that I print my graphic design to... for years it has been set up and printing just fine through an Actiontec M1424-WR-rev.D router. No setting were ever changed in the router, it just worked great right out of the box (the Verizon guys installed it). I had a small router with the cable company, but when I got the new router from Verozon the install guy said i didn't need it any more, and moved the ethernet plugs over to the new router. Everything worked fine for years... until the wireless functions started to fail (I don't use the wireless for the office, just the family), so, Verizon told me I had to replace it with a new M1242WR - rev. I router. I transfered all the cables over the the new router in exactly the same positions the were in on the old router. Now my printing software (RIP software) can't see the printer when it's routed through the FiOS router, but If I move the ethernet cable from the router and plug it into the back of my computer, which disconnects my computer from the network and gives me a dedicated ethernet connection to the printer... everything works fine. It's just when I try and run it through the router that my computer and printer can't talk to each other.
My RIP software that drives the printer demands a STATIC IP address set up in a TCP/IP printing port, and the printer is set up with the corresponding static IP address (this is unavoidable). Images of the setup screens below...
The RIP software setup is here... very simple:
Now, on the actual printer, the IP address matches (192.168.0.110), the subnet masks are 255.255.255.0, and the default gateway is set at 192-168.0.1.
This is all the info I have, and all I know is that it worked fine with no setup on the old router, and does NOT work on the new router... it used to be plug-n-play, now it's plug-n-stop.
Again, when the ethernet cable run directly from the computer it drives the printer just fine, connected to the router first and it failes completely.... HELP!!!!!!!!!!
Like I said... this has worked great for years, I haven't changed a thing on the printer or computer... the only change is the new router... I'm out of production until I figure this out (
Cabe...

The revision I router out of the box uses the following default IP addresses
192.168.1.x IP Address
255.255.255.0 Subnet
192.168.1.1 Default gateway
I notice you aren't using that IP Address scheme at all in the screen shots. Did you change the Verizon router internal settings to use the 0.1 ip scheme?

Acrobat 7.0 Printer port problem with windows 7.0?

I installed adbobe acrobat 7.0 standard on my new computer (windows 7.0), and I get this message: "warning 20225 adobe 7.0 ws unanle to setup adobe printer port." Does acrobat 7.0 work with windows 7.0?

If you are able to open Acrobat and Distiller, then you may be able to create a work-around. If the Adobe PDF printer was created, but not the port, then change the port to a "print-to-file" setting. Then open Distiller and setup a watched folder that you would print the file to. When you print the file, you may have to set the file extension to PS rather than the default PRN. The file would be a PS file and the extension is only to help the watched folder setup. Then try to print to the Adobe PDF printer and see if the watched folder will do the job. I am not sure and have not tried it on Win7 (I have AA9) but it is an option to try. If it does not work, then it is time to upgrade -- may be a good idea anyway.
