How to set up new printer using Automator

I would like to create an Automator workflow to set up a new printer, so that other users can download the workflow and have the process automated for them. The workflow would need to add a new LPD printer, supply the printer's address, queue name, and printer name.
Anyone have an idea for accomplishing this?

Follow your printer's wireless installation instructions.

How to set a default printer using vbs on windows 2008 R2 with remote desktop services

Hello
It seems I wasn't in the right places before / threads. BIG Sorry.
Here's the problem: I have this VBScript:
On any computer, the Default Printer "HisBadPrinter"
strPrinterName = "mySuperPrinter"
Set objPrinter = Helper.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
objPrinter.SetDefaultPrinter strPrinterName
In Xp, Windows 7 it work perfect, The default printer is being changed.
But in Remote Desktop on Windows Server 2008 R2 it is not working, with any type of account (Administrator, user, powerUser...) "HisBadPrinter" is always the default printer and it's always printing on it without any error messages.
Help Please.

How to set up Canon printer via Netgear print server ps121 on new macbook

I have bought a new Macbook (OS10.4.8). The Apple store gives a good deal if you buy a Canon ip4300 with it but I am having problems figuring out how to set up the printer to work thru my Netgear print server on my Netgear network. Can anybody advise:
1. I know my print server is on port 192.168.1.5, but what kind of settings do I use, IPP or LPT or something else?
2. Why can I not find the driver for the ip4300, even though I have used the CD that came with the printer and run the install program and the printer DOES work when I plug it directly into the USB port. Why does the Macbook come with drivers already installed for only a few ancient BJ Canons and why won't it show me where the driver for the ip4300 is since it is obviously already on the machine?
I know Netgear treats its customers with contempt (Linksys even worse). But I would expect a little more simplicity from Canon and Apple. I know I am an orangutan but it still seems incredibly difficult, as if they have hidden the printer driver on the computer and as if Apple does not want you to install networked printers. Please don't tell me to RTFM, I have read the Canon manual, it tells you how to network with Windows, does not even mention Mac. Any advice appreciated.

Hi zoevancouver,
If you are not able to set up your Canon MP460 printer, take a look at the article below. There is a link to the Canon website and compatible printers. Since this particular model is not on the list, you may need to contact Canon for additional support.

How to set a new SCSI number for a second drive?

How to set a new SCSI number for a second drive?
Walter

Walter,
This web site gives a good diagram:
http://www.hitachigst.com/hdd/support/dpes/dpesjum.htm
On a Quantum hard disk drive - they were the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) hard drive provider for Apple, you will see three or four pairs of pins on the green circuit board. They are labled:
AO . .
A1 . .
A2 . .
If no pins are connected, you have SCSI ID Zero This was the standard setting from the factory.
If you short out the pins beside AO .__. , you have designated SCSI ID One.
If you short out the pins beside A1 .__. , you have designated SCSI ID Two.
If you short out the pins beside A2 .__. , you have designated SCSI ID Four.
These values can be added together to get other SCSI IDs. If you have a jumper beside AO AND A1, that will add up to SCSI ID Three.
Some of the quantum drives used tiny black plastic jumpers with tiny metal contacts. I have yet to find a store that sells the tiny ones. I get my larger jumpers from old PC motherboards that are being thrown away. A small piece of aluminum foil will work as a jumper in a pinch. Just make sure it soed not fall off and short something else out!
Jim
PS
CD-ROM drives are set at the factory as ID 3. Internal drives are set at ID 0. I set my external SCSI drive at SCSI 1 so it does not conflict with the internal drive. Internal Zip drives are set at ID 5 and external Zip drives let you choose between 5 and 6. I set my burners at ID 4. Come up with a master plan for your devices like scanners and burners. Apple System Profiler will give you info on the device ID. If the computer fails to boot, turn off all but one SCSI device and make sure of its ID. Then check each subsequent device by powering up only one device at a time while booting from a CD at ID #3.

I signed up yesterday with synch. I don't know my password and I need it to reset a new password. Please advise how to set a new password when I dont know old 1
I set it up on my "upstairs computer" and then came to my "downstairs computer" to synch and I can not get into the account because of the above password problem. I write down my passwords. I must have mistyped it or mis written.
I want to change my password

The new Sync version uses the Firefox account and stores the login data (username/email and password) under the https://accounts.firefox.com site heading in the Password Manager and use the signedInUser.json file in the profile folder to store the credentials once connected to the account to avoid having to enter the master password on each start.

How to set field type choice using csom (c#)

I have a field type: Choice (menu to choose from) which is not multichoice. How do I set a value?
I have found code for multiple choice but it doesn't seem to work for single choice.

Hi,
The following code snippet for your reference:
newListItem["ChoiceFieldName"] = "ChoiceValue";
newListItem.Update();
clientContext.Load(newListItem);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
If you are assigning a Value which is not in the Choice Column, You need to create a choice value then assign it to the item.
More information is here:
