How to go about Printer Management

Hi all,
PLease let me how to go about printer managemt in a huge project with 1000 users.
We can put it in 3 phases.
1. Requirememt Gtahering
2. Architecture defination
3. Implimenting it in SAP
Well i have gone through all SAP help documents. But still I am not clear how to go about it.
What should be the details i need to finalize architeture and how printer defination and testing should be done.
Can anyone also provide some templates or formats for it.

  • OSX vs XP method of printer management?

    I currently have XP and have been looking at Mac for a long time. I find myself in need of a laptop and thought I would try a MacBook Pro.
    I have a question about printer management. I HATE THE WAY XP DOES IT!!
    Here is what I hate: When you use four or five different printers, you frequently end up printing to the wrong one. Windows can only have one default printer at a time. I wish each program could have a default printer setting.
    For instance, I print from Photoshop to my Epson R1800 98% of the time, rarely wanting to print anywhere else. I print to my Xerox Phaser from InDesign most of the time. (InDesign will save printer choice and settings with the document)
    When I print an envelope from my Word Processor, I only print to my HP4 with the envelope feeder. I find myself changing the default printer several times a day some days.
    Sorry to rant about XP, but please tell me that Macs have a better way of doing this.
    Thanks,
    Kirk

    Thanks for the answers.
    One click and you select the printer.
    All the available printers are listed right there.
    Sounds pretty much like XP. I don't like the one default printer for all programs scheme.
    A few programs that I have seen have a default printer setting built into the options, like the UPS Worldship software, where you can set up two different default printers that can both be different from the system default. It seems silly that each program has to write their own custom printer setup to enable different printers automatically from different applications, this should be written at the OS level.
    I was hoping that OSX would be much different than XP in this matter.

  • How to edit Printer Connections in GPO created through Print Management's "Deploy with Group Policy"

    Hi there,
    I have used the right-click "Deploy with Group Policy" in Print Management on Windows Server 2012 to deploy a printer connection to a GPO.   
    When you look at the GPO Settings, the Printer Connection is visible under User Configuration -> Policies -> Windows Settings -> Printer Connections -> Path: \ \ printserver\PrinterName.
    However, I cannot edit or delete that Printer Connection Path, which would be necessary if I had to rename or delete the printer referenced.  If you Edit the GPO, "Printer Connections" is not available under Windows
    Settings, only Scripts, Security Settings, Folder Redirection, and Policy-based QoS.
    Is there a way to edit the GPO's Printer Connections that are created with "Deploy with Group Policy"?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi,   
    How do you want to edit the printer connection? Do you want to edit the path of printer connection?
    Based on my test, we can’t edit the printer connection directly in GPO. We can edit the path of printer connection in printer management.
    For detail steps, we can refer to the method Miles Zhang provided in the following link:
    Where is "Printer Connections set"?

  • How to turn off printer color management

    I've exhausted places to ask this question. Spent an hour with Canon without a definitive answer.
    I'm printing from Photoshop CS2.
    OS 10.5 Leopard.
    Canon IP3600
    My colors are not printing as bright and are rather dull and somewhat dark.
    I have been using a Canon I360 for over 4 years with great results, but it died and had to be trashed.
    I've followed all the advice for getting good quality printing except the one elusive item.
    "Disable Color Management in the printer driver"
    Canon thinks it's clicking on Color Sync which will turn off the color management in the printer, they're not sure. There should be a item to turn it off, but there is none.
    Can anyone please guide me on turing off color management in the printer driver.
    Your help is apprecitated.
    Thanks.
    PS: I use a Huey Pro to calibrate my iMac monitor, however the only problem is that when it asks to have the contrast set at 50%, there no control for this. I can set the brightness but not the contrast.
    I thought that setting the brightness should get me close to having my monitor calibrated.
    In the past I was getting with less then 10% of a match between my prints and monitor, now it's way off.
    Is there a way of stripping all the setting and starting over with a step by step guide that someone can furnish for me to follow?
    Thanks again.

    There are two settings within the Canon driver located under Color Mode, ColorSync or Vendor Matching. If you don't want to use the driver's built-in colour management, then select ColorSync. However you may not get your desired results as a lot will depend on the CMS used by the application.
    The blokes in my office that know a thing or two about colour management reckon for the consumer model printers you should let them manage the colours. There are a number of colour profiles within your printer driver that are related to certain paper stocks. For example, when you print a photo you should select a photo paper, such as photo paper pro glossy which has the widest gamut. This will give you the best results. But if you select plain paper and print on photo paper, then you are not letting the printer reach its targets.
    In summary, the three main settings I use to print brighter colours;
    1. Color Matching > Vendor Matching
    2. Quality & Media > Media Type > Photo paper (assuming you are printing on photo paper)
    3. Quality & Media > Print Quality > High
    If you still want to tweak the output then you can open the Color Options menu and manually adjust the colours and brightness.

  • How to configure network printer on solaris 10 intel based

    how to configure the network printer in solaris 10
    like hp laserjet printer/printers,

    Very very easy.
    Go to the print manager . (printmgr I believe or in the launch menu under preferences)
    select add a network printer
    Fill out the info. I find that the hpijs printer driver works better then the suggested foomatic on my hp 4000s. I could not print pdfs otherwise.
    Other things to know is the protocol should be BSD (at least it works for me). And add the port to the destination so 192.168.0.1:9600 for example (for hp).
    thats about it. To have it show up correctly in JDS you should probably add it to the printer list under the launch->preferences->printer preferences.

  • PLUG-INS not always loading - - Coupon Printer Manager plugin has crashed

    ''dupe of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/914197''
    I am running Windows XP SP3 and all updates are current.
    For weeks, running 7.0.1, 8.0.1 or 9.0.1, whenever I try to print coupons at the www.coupons.com website, I have difficulty and consistently I receive the following Firefox ERROR message...
    "The Coupons Inc. Coupon Printer Manager plugin has crashed"
    ...and I always SUBMIT a REPORT to Mozilla.
    This website is suppose to invoke the following plug-ins...
    Coupons Inc., Coupon Printer Manager 4.0.1.3
    Coupons Inc., Coupon Printer Manager 4.0.0.7
    ...and using Task Manager I watch to see if the Image column shows one or two plug-ins appear - of course, I don't know which ones - see below for additional info. Most of the time only one plug-in appears and then the website asks me to INSTALL the software (again). When two plug-ins appear (again, I do not know which), things run okay for the first coupon - however around 50% of the time I am unable to print a second, third, etc, coupon.
    Regarding add-ons, I have the following:
    PLUG-INS
    Coupons Inc., Coupon Printer Manager 4.0.1.3
    Coupons Inc., Coupon Printer Manager 4.0.0.7

    Free Download Manager plugin 1.5.5
    APPEARANCE
    FOXSCAPE 4.01
    Default 9.0.1 (disabled)
    I have disabled each of these add-ons to see if anything improves, but nothing does. This does not surprise me since I have been running the same ADD-ONS for months and this problem has only started happening over the past few weeks.
    I have uninstalled the Coupon Printer plug-ins, scrubbed my Registry, and then reinstalled them (with FF closed, as well as opened, of course), and that does not help either.
    Sure would like to RESOLVE this FF problem.
    I am wondering if there's a PLUGINS setting that needs tweaking, and on that note, I have tried setting...
    dom.ipc.plugins.java.enabled
    ...to TRUE (where default is false) and that does not help either.
    The following screen shot shows my about:config / plugin details > http://tinypic.com/r/10dv3v7/5
    Hopefully, others have experienced the same problem and found a workaround or fix.
    Thanks,

    Sorry, a resolution isn't going to easily or come from Mozilla.
    4 out of 5 of those crashes were directly caused by the Coupons, Inc. Coupon Printer DLL = npMozCouponPrinter.dll
    The developer of that plugin is going to have to fix it. Contact the Coupon website to find out how to report a bug with that plugin.

  • How can I list print queues per server via power shell script

    Hello,
    we are managing many print servers on our domain environment,  now for auditing purpose I need to report print queues per server,  and it seems bit difficult task doing it via GUI in print management view, could someone help me with script which
    gets me the no. of print queues on each print server.
    Also I need to list all the print drivers installed on each print servers. 
    I tried to list the drivers " Get-WmiObject win32_printerDriver -filter " but this will get me complete information about the driver, I need to list only the driver name (-filter) either _RELPATH or _PATH
    dibu

    You can also use WMI like this:
    (get-WmiObject win32_printer -computer ws702).count
    I don't understand what you mean by list only.  Just select what you need.
    See: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/scriptcenter/dd742419
    That will give you some basic background on how to use PowerShell to get the properties of objects.

  • How to enable frontend printing using Adobe Print Forms

    Otto Gold at the forum "SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe" gave me the tip that Sandra Rossi in this forum might help me out. Here is the link to my original thread How to enable frontend printing using Adobe Print Forms
    My question was:
    Hi Experts!
    Did anyone of you manage to enable frontend printing using Adobe Print Forms? In order to save administration effort we use frontend printing in our ERP system. We just changed some SMARTFORMS to the new Adobe Forms technology. Now we learned that direct frontend printing does not work with these forms.
    Any help will be very much appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
    Gerald

    I think you'll be disappointed by a rather negative answer but I'll try to explain everything I know (or think I know) the best I can
    The simplest solution is to do a preview, and print from Adobe Reader! (as I could see on one project, users have to display one more dialog than usually to print) It's the best workaround according to me.
    How Adobe form printing works:
    When you print an Adobe form from SAP, a printer language (PCL, PS, ZPL, PDF) is retrieved from TSP0B table according to the device type, ADS (Adobe Document Services, installed in the SAP java stack) is then contacted to generate the form: a file corresponding to the printer language is generated and sent back to SAP (there are also 2 other little files but it's of none interest here). SAP stores it as a file (named SPOOL...) in the global directory (DIR_GLOBAL when you use AL11 transaction).
    When you ask SAP to print it, it sends the file as is to the printer.
    Note: when you ask SAP to display the spool, SAP sends a request to ADS which will send back a PDF (binary stream which is not stored on disk, just displayed on frontend).
    How frontend printing works:
    If you want to print a normal spool via frontend, SAP doesn't know the language of the printer you will choose. SAP sends the spool in a format named SAPWIN to a frontend program named SAPLPD, it converts the SAPWIN format into GDI, a Windows format that is understood by all printer drivers, and it is sent to the printer driver (you have selected) which converts the GDI format into the printer language.
    Any workaround?
    First possibility would be that ADS converts the PDF into SAPWIN format (by creating an Adobe .XDC file at the ADS side). SAP says it's not possible in Note 685571 - Printing PDF-based forms. As I understand, SAPWIN is a very simple language compared to PCL for example, so it is very difficult to convert a PDF to SAPWIN without losing much information. There's a SAP note about the SAPWIN language if you want to check.
    Second possibility is to print directly the PDF through Adobe Reader: you get the PDF from ADS, download it to the frontend (easy), and execute directly Adobe Reader print function. Unfortunately, I don't know if it's possible. Moreover, we should enhance the standard SAP print dialog...
    Third possibility is the one I recommended at the beginning of this post

  • Printers undeployed by GPO print management keep reappearing!

    I would really appreciate some help as this is causing major issues. I initially tried deploying printers via print management to the Terminal Servers and it didn't work out. Many printing defaults would not propogate to the Terminal Servers and there was
    no known fix. I went through the steps of undeploying them through print management and let it run overnight. 
    When we log on to the TS', they seem to slowly start coming in. I can delete them but then they'll reappear when GP updates. I cannot get rid of them. Again, it was based on computer config, not user config (if that makes a difference). I need to know how
    to get rid of them permanently please. I've read other forums/threads about removing the GP/OU entirely but I cannot do that so I assume it's a reg key somewhere that I need to delete. Does anyone know? I beg you to please not redirect me to other threads
    and forums as I've spent almost 35 hours doing that already and they either don't apply or do not work.

    Hi Lynnette74,
    Firstly, please run the command Gpupdate /force to apply the GPO settings on  the problematic client. Then, please run the command
    Gpresult /h > C:\temp\gpresult.html  (“C:\temp\” is the path of the gpresult.html, you can set it yourself) on the problematic client to check if the GPO which configured printers still applies.
    In addition, it would be helpful if you could collect the following information:
    Do all the clients or only some clients have the issue?
    How did you set the GPO which configured the printer?
    Regards,
    Lany Zhang

  • Problem about space management of archived log files

    Dear friends,
    I have a problem about space management of archived log files.
    my database is Oracle 10g release 1 running in archivelog mode. I use OEM(web based) to config all the backup and recovery settings.
    I config "Flash Recovery Area" to do backup and recovery automatically. my daily backup schedule is every night at 2:00am. and my backup setting is "disk settings"--"compressed backup set". the following is the RMAN script:
    Daily Script:
    run {
    allocate channel oem_disk_backup device type disk;
    recover copy of database with tag 'ORA$OEM_LEVEL_0';
    backup incremental level 1 cumulative copies=1 for recover of copy with tag 'ORA$OEM_LEVEL_0' database;
    the retention policy is the second choice, that is "Retain backups that are necessary for a recovery to any time within the specified number of days (point-in-time recovery)". the recovery window is 1 day.
    I assign enough space for flash recovery area. my database size is about 2G. I assign 20G as flash recovery area.
    now here is the problem, through oracle online manual, it said oracle can manage the flash recovery area automatically, that is, when the space is full, it can delete the obsolete archived log files. but in fact, it never works! whenever the space is full, the database will hang up! besides, the status of archived log files is very strange, for example, it can change "obsolete" stauts from "yes" to "no", and then from "no" to "yes". I really have no idea about this! even though I know oracle usually keep archived files for some longer days than retention policy, but I really don't know why the obsolete status can change automatically. although I can write a schedule job to delete obsolete archived files every day, but I just want to know the reason. my goal is to backup all the files on disk and let oracle automatically manage them.
    also, there is another problem about archive mode. I have two oracle 10g databases(release one), the size of db1 is more than 20G, the size of db2 is about 2G. both of them have the same backup and recovery policy, except I assign more flash recovery area for db1. both of them are on archive mode. both of nearly nobody access except for the schedule backup job and sometime I will admin through oem. the strange thing is that the number of archived log files of smaller database, db2, are much bigger than ones of bigger database. also the same situation for the size of the flashback logs for point-in-time recovery. (I enable flashback logging for fast database point-in-time recovery, the flashback retention time is 24 hours.) I found the memory utility of smaller database is higher than bigger database. nearly all the time the smaller database's memory utility keeps more than 99%. while the bigger one's memory utility keeps about 97%. (I enable "Automatic Shared Memory Management" on both databases.) but both database's cup and queue are very low. I'm nearly sure no one hack the databases. so I really have no idea why the same backup and recovery policy will result so different result, especially the smaller one produces more redo logs than bigger one. does there anyone happen to know the reason or how should I do to check the reason?
    by the way, I found web based OEM can't reflect the correct database status when the database shutdown abnormally. for example, if the database hang up because of out of flash recovery area, after I assign more flash recovery area space and then restart the database, the OEM usually can't reflect the correct database status. I must restart OEM manually to correctly reflect the current database status. does there anyone know in what situation I should restart OEM to reflect the correct database status?
    sorry for the long message, I just want to describe in details to easy diagnosis.
    any hint will be greatly appreciated!
    Sammy

    thank you very much, in fact, my site's oracle never works about managing archive files automatically although I have tried all my best. at last, I made a job running daily to check the archive files and delete them.
    thanks again.

    Hey MTdev,
    Panel close? events cannot be triggered on a VI being viewed or controlled remotely. Some more information on that can be found in the help here:http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361E-01/lvprop/vi_panel_closeq/.  My suggestion would be to set the Title Bar on the front panel of your remote VI to not be visible so that their only option for closing the window is to click the logout button.  Are you using Remote Front Panels(http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3277) to do this instrument control?  Using remote front panels allows you to manage a lot of the multiple people accesssing at the same-time type issues so it may be something to look into if you are not already using this method.
