Easy Way to Add Printer on a Windows Computer

1 .Ensure Printer on XP machine is shared - assume it's called SHAREDPRINTER.
2) On the Network Browsing on your W7 machine ensure you can "See" the Printer share.
Now on the W7 machine do the following (doesn't matter if it's X-86 or x-64).
3) Control Panel==> add LOCAL (Yes LOCAL) printer. I know it's on a Network but hold your horses -- what we are
actually doing is "Poodlefaking" the W7 machine into thinking it's running the printer.
4) Create NEW port==>Local port
5) Portname is \\XPMACHINE\SHAREDPRINTER
6) Now W7 will load a driver and you'll be able to print on the XP machine.
Simple If the printer is on the W7 machine and you want to print on the XP machine then do the same instructions on the XP machine -- 
port name in this case will be \\W7MACHINE\SHAREDPRINTER
If this is a Network / WiFI printer run this on ALL the computers who need access to the printer
Start at 3) - you don't need a printer name in this case just the IP address on the LAN.
at 4) chose TCPIP port
and at 5) enter the IP address of the printer on your LAN.

The geotags are part of the picture file. Unless they are intentionally stripped out, they will remain as part of the file even if it's transferred to another device. Most desktop photo apps can read that data.

  • Is there an easy way to add a sketch to Apple Email?

    I struggled with a new-to-me sketch program that I found on an Internet website, but I was finally able to copy and paste it to an Email message. It was supposed to have been easier than that, but that was the best I could do.I then realized that I had to add a few lines and notes. That got me to thinking. By now, you'd think that there would be an easy way to add graphic material to Apple Email. Is there?
    I have an iMac.

  • Is there an easy way to add a location map to Pages?

    Hi,
    Using the latest version of Pages, is there an easy way to add a location map?
    Many Thanks
    Simon.

    Are you trying to copy an image from the Maps application? 
    If you are, the easiest way I have found to do this is by going to Edit>Copy in Maps and then pasting the image in the Pages document. 

  • Is there an easy way to add a desktop shortcut for all users?

    Looking for an easy way to add a shortcut to an app for all users.

    William is correct. There are global system settings, and then there are personal user settings. Adding a shortcut to the desktop, or more commonly the Dock is a personal setting.
    Unless its in some kind of mass deployment scenario where you can create a pre programed image for large amounts of computers which has it already has your app shortcut setup, its easier to just do it one user at a time.

    After editing images in Aperture, I want to overwrite the new editing to a backup external drive.  Is there an easy way to "add" the new work without the  long process of backing up the whole library.

    But the Library is not a program.  I use SuperDuper, and it is smart enough to treat Finder Packages (such as the Library) as a whole bunch of files and folders, and overwrites only those that have changed.  Can't CCC be set up the same way?

  • Using Canon MF 4320 printer installed on Windows computer

    Hi guys.
    Is there any chance to use Canon MF 4320 printer installed on Windows computer? I am getting a Canon UFR II Printer Driver Error: -50.
    Thanks for your help

    I found it useful to install the software form the CD provided with the printer rather than downloading the drivers.  The download options were confusing with different drivers for different functions and the scanner did not work from the System Preferences > Print & Scan menu until I installed the software from the CD.
    You should then download the current Canon driver for your printer, if it is supported on Mac OS X.
    If all else fails contact Canon.
    http://www.canon.co.uk/Support/Consumer_Products/Telephone_Numbers/telephone_num bers.aspx
    You can also email them at
    Canon Care Center <[email protected]>
    asking where to find the driver and if your printer is compatible with Mac OS X (and which versions of same).
    I did not find an MF4320 listed on the Canon support site.
    http://usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer
    or support for Mac OS X for any MF printer
    http://usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/standard_display/mac-osx
    So it may not be supported but it is worth an email to Canon to find out.

  • Easy way to add more audiotracks??? + Environment midi/audio question???

    Hi!
    Let's say, when I open a new project I have standard 24 audio tracks.
    But when recording I see that I will need more, is there an easy and fast way to add more tracks?
    As I see it now, I Have to run the Logic Setup Assistent, add more tracks (let's say 40). Reopen the project, go in the environment, create a new audio object for every track I want to add, double click it and assign the correct track to 'channel'. If I need to add 10 more tracks I have to go over these last steps 10 times. Am I missing some handy quick trick here?
    Also, the second part of my question:
    when I open the environment window, sometimes it only shows "midi" and the "GS instrument drum mapped" and some other times it shows "audio" and an "overview of my mixer". This seems to happen at random and I don't know why. The mixer view is what I want (especially when I need to add tracks as mentioned before), but when I get the midi view I don't know what to do to get the audio/mixer view. Any help?

    Ok,
    There is a way so you wont have to do the 10 setups.
    Run the Setup Assistant and when it asks how many
    audio tracks you want, always tell it more than you
    will possibly need. I use 101. I know I will probably
    never use that many but they are already and waiting
    in case I do need more. This way you dont have to do
    anything except go to the track menu and select create
    new or double click the arear below the last
    track and what ever track is highlighted, a exact duplicate
    will appear. Then you just click and hold on it to make it
    whatever kind of track you need from the menu that appears.
    This first answer takes care of the second question. Since you
    dont need to go into the enviroment to hook up new tracks.
    Just so you know if you click and hold on the name of the layer
    Midi, instruments, clicks and ports or whatever another menu
    will appear letting you choose what layer you want to go to.
    This is the easy way!

  • Any easy way to set *.jars classpath in windows

    Is any easy way to set the classpath for serveral jars in windows?
    for example, if I have 1000 jars in a folder "C:/MyJar", is this the only way to set the classpath with:
    CLASSPATH=C:/MyJar/Jar0001.jar; C:/MyJar/Jar0002.jar; C:/MyJar/Jar0003.jar; .........; C:/MyJar/Jar1000.jar
    ?

    Is any easy way to set the classpath for serveral jars
    in windows?
    for example, if I have 1000 jars in a folder
    "C:/MyJar", is this the only way to set the classpath
    with:

    C:/MyJar/Jar0003.jar; .........; C:/MyJar/Jar1000.jar
    ?You shouldn't have a system CLASSPATH environment variable.
    You don't add every JAR for every project to a system CLASSPATH. You should be doing it on a project-by-project basis, preferrably with a script or an Ant build.xml.
    Doing it with a system environment variable makes your apps less portable, because now you depend on the target machine being set up in a particular way. You should figure out how to package your apps appropriately so clients don't have to worry about that setup issue.

  • Why isn't there an easy way to add a photo to photoStream from the finder?

    Apple makes it easy to share your photo with Twitter, FB, Flickr, etc. Why not Photo Stream? As far as I know, the only way to add a photo to photo stream is to open iPhoto and then add the photo to that.  This seems to be a very poor way of quickly adding a photo.

    If you have a suggestion make it here: Apple Feedback. This is the wrong venue.

  • SCCM 2012 R2: easy way to disable/enable MULTIPLE maintenance windows at once?

    I have been racking my brain on this one for a while.
    Scenario: you have an ADR set up that is deploying updates once a month. You have multiple collections set up that each have their own special maintenance window (example: 1st weekend - sat - 8-9pm)
    Then, one week you are asked to not deploy updates for the upcoming weekend. Well, the ADR already ran and the machines for "1st weekend" are just waiting for the maintenance window to open. Now, at this point you can obviously go into EACH collection
    associated with "1st weekend" and disable the maintenance window. But if you are asked to do this often and/or you have multiple collections with maintenance windows this could be a hassle.
    Is there a way to easily enable and disable multiple maintenance windows at a time?
    GUI: I have not found a way to select multiple collections and disable all MWs
    PowerShell-module: set-CMMaintenanceWindow doesn't appear to have ability to modify "IsEnabled" property of MWs
    PowerShell-WMI: Can't find in WMI where to modify "Isenabled" Property
    Please see my other thread
    regarding PowerShell
    What other creative options are there? Disable a service via PowerShell on members of "1st Weekend" collections? Which service? Should I be looking in SQL? Where? Other options in GUI?
    I may end up getting stuck doing this manually but I want to make sure I am not overlooking something first... it's such a simple task - just seems like there should be an easy way to accomplish this.
    (And please, for the sake of my question, lets not get into the semantics of whether or not the ADR technically DEPLOYS the updates or not.)

    I didn't even think about that.... so having one MW that is disabled or having no MW at all would allow the client to install at will? I guess I was thinking that if it had a MW but it was disabled it just wouldn't update.
    The MWs on the collections are all different.
    Perhaps I need to re-assess my approach...
    The original plan was to have one ADR (patch tuesday) update 1 SUG (which is deployed to all machines) each month. Machines would then install based off MWs.
    Now I'm thinking it might be best to have 2 ADRS:
    ADR1- updates existing SUG which is already deployed to Dev/Test machines.
    ADR2- creates new SUG - which I then manually deploy to Prod collections. 
    This would automate the deployment to Non-Prod machines but it would give me the power to withhold updates to Prod machines for the month if needed.

  • A quick and easy way to add genre to songs in a playlist

    I have a 160mb classic ipod and I want to shuffle only a portion of my total library tracks. I am thinking the best way to do this is to use the Smart Playlist function and shuffle by genre. But if I do that I want to change the genre label or add one to many of my 4000 songs. Is there anyway to do this easily? I tried to select every song in a playlist and right click and use Apply Sort Field, but unfortunately genre is not one of these fields! Any idea?
    Or (although this may be the wrong forum), is the any way, short of making one gigantic playlist, to get my iPod to shuffle among just certain playlists?

    The only way to add to files to a playlist on the player itself is to put them in the queue, then save the queue as a playlist.

    Besides using Filter > Correct Camera Distortion, is there an easy way to put a vignette on a picture?  The method I just named doesn't give me the smooth, uniform fade that I need for creating collages, etc.  Thanks!

    Sure, just use any selection tool to make your selection.  Here, I simply used an elliptical selection:
    Then, use Select...Feather to feather the selection.  I used 10px.  Hit the Ctrl+J keys to copy that feathered selection to a new layer with a transparent background:
