How to connect labviewv database toolkit to SQL CE server

Dear sir,
i am using labview 8.2.1 and Database Connectivity 8.2.i need same simple concept of how to connect LV database toolkit to SQL CE Server.

When opening the database connection, you will need to provide either a connection string, or a path to a UDL (which will contain a conenction string). The easiest way to get a connection string is to go to (no I am not kidding) www.ConnectionStrings.com. Once there you enter the type of DBMS you are trying to connect to, and the system will list connection strings that you can use based on the drivers that you're using.
How much experience do you have with LV and/or databases?

V3 Printer driver on Windows Server 2012

Hello there.....
I have installed Print services on Windows Server 2012. I have read several forum and found that it is a best practice to install V3 drivers if workstations run on Windows 7.
Our all of workstations have windows 7 so I want to install v3 printer drivers. we have printers of HP and Canon mostly.
So can anyone tell me how can I get V3 drivers of HP Laserjet P4015 for example...
I have installed a driver but found its v4.
Please tell me how can I install V3 driver for HP, Canon printers.....
Thanks
Kind Regards
Namvi

You would need to use the V3 drivers that the vendors provide to Windows Update

or from the vendors website

How to connect to a print server

Just bought a MacBook. Can connect to the internet through airport, but can not connect to my print server through the network. Can anyone help resolve this??

Can anyone help resolve this?
I'm sure someone can, but without more information, such as any clue about the type of printer/print server, or some idea about your network setup, this is the kind of task that is impossible to do blind.

Trying to connect to a printer through a windows shared printer

I have two printers connected to a Windows machine. On that machine I have shared both printers. A Brother and a color HP 3600N. When i go into print setting and try to set them up I can see both.
I connected to the Brother Printer and it is working fine.
I tried to connect to the HP 3600N but the print driver was not available for that machine. I went to HPs web site and downloaded the driver and did the install. I rebooted and tried again. Still the HP 3600N driver was not showing up.
I tried using two other print drivers the 3500 and the 3700. With both I was able to "connect" to the printer, but the printer only printed garbage.
In order to make sure the printer was working with the Mac. I disconnected it from the PC and directly connected it to the Mac. It found it immediately and the 3600N driver appeared...the printer worked fine.
I then disconnected it from the mac and reconnected it to the PC...rebooted etc.
Then i tried to find the printer again. Once again that print driver 3600n was not available.
How can I over come this. I need to have both printers connecting to the PC for now
Thanks
Mark

Look at the printer sharing instructions on the invaluable iFelix Tech Notes site.
If problems persist, check System Preferences -> Sharing -> Firewall -> Advanced and if necessary clear/uncheck the options to block UDP traffic and enable stealth mode; as long as you're behind a NAT router, those options aren't essential. Windows does seem to put out a slew of UDP traffic, and I've found that blocking UDP/enabling stealth mode block my home eMac from seeing the Windows machine to which a shared HP printer is connected.

Connecting HP990Cse via print sever in Windows 7 64bit

I want to install the drivers for an HP990Cse printer which is connected through a printer server built into my WD Netcenter network drive. Windows 7 (64bit) can find the printer but not the driver. Also, this printer is not found in the list provided in Windows. It asks for the location of the driver files (browse button), however, I am unable to download any driver files from the HP website. All they have is a wizard to allow hookup via USB or instruct the user to simply hook the printer to Windows and let it provide the driver. I am not hooking up via USB, so I not sure what to do.
When installing a Brother printer, I had no issue since I could download the driver files, put them in a folder and then point Windows to that folder. Where can I get the driver files for this printer or what procedure should I use to install this printer?
Thanks,
This question was solved.
View Solution.

I will answer this question myself for the benefit of anyone who may find themselves in this position. Following some advice I found on the Internet. I did the following:
I installed the printer as a local printer on the USB port allowing Windows to provide the driver. It worked find plugged into a USB port.
I then moved the printer back to the print server in the NetCenter.
I then went into the printer driver on the ports tab and added a new port with the network path for the printer. For example \\printer_server_name\printers\DESKJET-990C.
This did not work, however. So I went to the Network and Sharing Center and chose the option to View Computers and Devices which showed the print server. I double clicked on the print server which then displayed the connected printer. I double clicked on the printer to connect to it. I got a message saying that the driver could not be found. I clicked OK to install the driver. When the driver list appeared, I selected HP in the left column and guess what? The 990C printer driver and a bunch more HP printer drivers were listed. I selected the 990C and everything worked fine.
I not sure if installing the printer locally caused Windows to populate the list with more HP drivers, but it seems as if it did because those drivers were not in the list before.

How Do i disable ""enable advance Printing features on windows server 2008 ""

Hi ,
I have a windows server 2008 which is used as a terminal server . Users at remote locations log on to this server via "" DYNDNS"" to user our ERP and company files. We use ""DOT MATRIX PRINTERS "" to print . As we all know that ""enable advance
printing feature"" is checked by default on windows server 2008 the format of our ""DOT MATRIX PRINTOUTS "" CHANGE which creates a big mess.
I would like to know if there is any way where i can disable this feature permanently.

In previous operating systems, that setting was for designed for disabling and enabling GDI rendering on the server. Since you are using a TYPE 4 print driver, there is no GDI rendering and thus this setting is not configurable.
If you would like to change this setting, you will need to use a TYPE 3 print driver that does not use XPS rendering. Then the previous configuration methods you were using will work.

Windows 7 x64 can't read/install any printer drivers from Windows Server 2003 x64 (AMD64 folder and HP Deskjet 855c)

I read the thread Widows 7 printer
HP deskjet 855c driver about possible installation of HP855c drivers onto Windows 7 x64 from "Windows Server 2003 x64" CD but I didn't have enough luck to succeed with doing it on my laptop. That thread appears to be dead now
as it is marked "Answered", so I'm asking for help here. I have Toshiba Satellite P500 with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (http://i55.tinypic.com/2zgth6v.jpg).
Let me tell you first that I don't have access to Windows Server 2003 x64 or XP Pro 64 CD's. However I did some research online, which eventually forced me to learn about the "file sharing". After extensive search I was able to get the copies
of AMD64 folders from Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard x64 with SP2 and
XP Pro 64. The reason that I went also after XP Pro was because I thought that the extra wording "R2 Standard x64 with SP2" in description of "Windows Server 2003" did not reflect the exact name provided by poster
Alan. I couldn't find just "Windows Server 2003 x64" (does it matter?).
Anyway, I followed first the drill with running "printui /s /t2" and disabling UAC, and then in both cases I was able to locate the
NTPRINT.INF file (http://oi51.tinypic.com/9qwvt2.jpg - this image is from XP Pro AMD64 folder) but each time when I
attempted to install the driver, I got the same message stating:
"The folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software drive for your device. If the folder contains the driver, make sure it's designed to work with Windows for x64-based systems." (http://oi53.tinypic.com/27yveiw.jpg)
Why aren't there x64 drivers?
During several installation attempts I had the printer connected to or disconnected from my laptop. It didn't make any difference. I must add that for this purpose I had to use different cable than the original one designated only for the
Parallel port in my old desktop with Windows XP. My new laptop with Windows 7 x64 came only with 3 USB ports (plus 1 HDMI and 1 Serial). Because of that situation I bought in advance a new printer cable called “USB to 36-pin Parallel Port Adapter
Cable” (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003A8I75E). I'm not sure, if it will work until I can install the printer.
Besides, nobody talked about this issue yet. I was also playing with the port choices in "Add printer" step; changing from default LPT1 to USB001 with the same negative results.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I was very hopeful after reading positive "case closed" notes there.
Can anyone help me here, maybe by making the necessary files available for download? I'm willing to pay for such assistance or make a donation, if necessary. Seriously. Judging by the large number of views of the original
thread, one could assume that there is a potential demand for such service. It would be more human to pay few bucks for a few driver files than $900 for the whole Windows Server 2003 x64 CD, no? Can Microsoft accomodate me/us, please? :)

P.S. I was advised to come for help here from

I have my HP 855c/driver working on Win 7 Ultimate x64. I used the 'printui /s' procedure and 4 files described above with some minor changes.
I pulled WindowsServer2003.WindowsXP-KB914961-SP2-x64-ENU.exe down from the Microsoft website. Running the file causes the exe to unpack into a temp folder at the root drive. A 'Setup Error' message box is displayed once the file is run. I left this
message box up until I copied ntprint.inf, ntprint.cat, and sp2.cab from the temp folder.
I copied driver.cab from a Windows XP Pro disc. I also needed amd64\stdnames.gpd which was already in my Windows 7 c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 folder.
I created a folder with the 5 files (ntprint.inf, ntprint.cat, sp2.cab, driver.cab, and amd64\stdnames.gpd). This is my 'Have Disc' folder.
I followed the 'printui /s' instructions, first changing the permissions mentioned above and then installing the driver. Next I followed the instructions to add a printer from Control Panel 'Devices and Printers' - 'Add Printer', choosing to 'use an existing
driver' when installing the HP 855c.
I used a slightly different ntprint.inf, size 1570418. The readable contents of ntprint.inf is as follows. Notice the line 'CatalogFile=ntprint.cat' is not included. I tried using the 1570468 version of ntprint.inf; when I did I received an incompatibility
message (probably the same one mentioned above).

HP Cloud Print Driver for Windows Server 2003?

Hello,
I have a unique (complicated) situation that I am trying to find a solution for.
Here is the deal,
My company is trying to set up a temporary remote branch location inside a building where we are unable to wire a network. Our solution is to use a wireless hotspot. Connected to this hotspot, we will have an iPad and an HP Laserjet M525.
The iPad will be connecting to our Citrix environment over VPN through Citrix Receiver to deliver a desktop interface to the iPad. This is needed to access a few applications that are used at the branch.
The problem now is printing, AirPrint wont work because the iPad is on VPN (and its at a windows interface, not the iPad's).
I had the idea of using the HP printers built in ePrint function to print, so I set that up. So now sending at email to [email protected] prints to the HP printer attached to the wireless hotspot.
Emaling to print works, but ideally, I would like this printer to show up in the Windows Devices and Printers, so that the user can just click print, choose the HP printer, and it will print, (with a delay obviously as its sending an email).
So I downloaded the HP ePrint Windows Driver, which has to be installed on the main Citrix servers so that the users session can grab the printer and use it, turns out the driver doesnt work on Windows Server 2003.
My first attempt at a workaround was Google Cloud Print, which was fairly simple to connect to HP ePrint, but apparently the Google Cloud Print Driver doesnt work on Windows Server 2003 either.
Is there a version of the HP ePrint Driver out there that works on Windows Server 2003?
tldr:
I would like to print to a remote HP printer that is connected to a wifi hotspot from our internal network. I need whatever software I download to be compatible with Server 2003.
I understand this is over complicated but thanks for any input.

I believe I understand your issue. You would like to use a print driver to print to your HP ePrint enabled printer from your apps that are hosted by Citrix server. While I believe this makes perfect sense, HP does not have a print driver that officially supports MS TS or Citrix that also supports the ePrint Cloud path. The reason for this is the ePrint windows driver is a "dynamic" print driver (similar to HP UPD dynamic mode) that handles multiple print paths (tcp/ip, wireless direct, cloud, etc) in a single driver instance by dynamically changing the port the print queue is bound to so the port is specific to the delivery path. For example, if printing to a network printer it will use a MS Standard tcp/ip port. If printing to the ePrint cloud a custom port is used, etc. Well, if you have lots of Citrix users trying to print to a single print queue, but to different destinations, the users would be colliding with each other when they print by having the driver trying to change the print queue to different print ports at the same time.
What you could do is install an ePrint print queue on the citrix server if you can control the access to that queue to just your local branch users. Also, if you only have on ePrint enabled printer the situation is even better as only one port will be needed by that queue. You can find the ePrint software at www.hp.com/go/eprintsoftware You might want to download the version of the driver that supports XP as Windows 2003 is very similar print system.
NOTE: this is not a supported environment for this driver. You would be using it without warrenty or support and no promises are being made here.
Good luck if you choose this path and please post back the results. Thanks!
