KB fix for print document name in event logs on Server 2012 and Server 2012R2

It appears as though the requested corrections to the documentation where never honored
Note After you apply the hotfix or update, you can show the printed document name in the event by enabling a specific Group Policy.
The policy name:
Computer Configuration \ Administrative Templates \ Printers
Allow job name in event logs
The Windows 8 / Server 2012 fix is:
Event ID 307 does not show the printed document name in Windows
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2938013/en-us
2012R2 is in the April Roll up.
Windows RT 8.1, Windows 8.1, and Windows Server 2012 R2 Update: April 2014
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2919355/en-us
Alan Morris Windows Printing Team

In my simple test, I see that the Group-Policy does exist on 2012R2 but not for 2012.
I isolated the registry changes so I can update a 2012 only system... that text is below.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Printers]
"ShowJobTitleInEventLogs"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Printers]
"ShowJobTitleInEventLogs"=dword:00000001
I hope this helps others out since it took sometime to narrow this down. Thank you.

Are there any differences between Server 2012 and Server 2012 R2 that might impact TFS or SQL server required for TFS?

Hi,
In the interest of just getting started and learning the basics of setting up TFS, I previously setup an IDE using a large workstation running Windows 8. I set up the required servers for TFS using VM's through Hyper-V. I am now transferring
everything to a new and separate physical server.
My question stems from a problem I had when I originally setup the TFS system the 1st time. I couldn't get SQL server to work using the Server 2012 R2 download from the subscription center. When I used Server 2012, it worked, so I proceeded that
way just to get going.
So now I'm setting things up anew on a new physical box, I want to ask up front, is there some difference in the R2 version that causes problems with either TFS or SQL server, or was there likely some oversight on my part when I did things the 1st time?
As an addendum to my question, I always assumed R2 merely means the Server software has progressed to a refined state and is ready for wide distribution and easy setup. I assumed that there are no differences between the Standard version and the R2
version. Is that understanding correct?
Thanks.

Hi Daniel,
Thanks for your response. That's a great link. I don't recall seeing a page that is so clear and easy to read back when I was doing this the 1st time, but I probably just missed it. That helps.
I am/was using TFS2013 and VS2013. As I recall, my problem was getting SQL Server to work, but I thought asking this question on this forum was wiser because I figured everyone using TFS would be well familiar with these issues.
At any rate, it seems as though TFS2013 is fine with Server 2012 standard or R2.
I was using SQL Server 2012, and it also seems as though it works on R2:

Anyway, thanks for your support. I'll be trying this again and we'll see.

Possible Fix for Printing Problems in Leopard

I got this information from Mac OS X Leopard Edition book by David Pogue. Here's his possible fix for printing problems in Leopard...Open web browser and enter this address http://127.0.0.1:631. You'll find youself at a secret "front end" for CUPS (Common UNIX Printer System), the underlying printing technology for Mac OS X 10.5. This trick lets your Mac communicate with a huge array of older printers that dopn't yet have Mac OS X drivers. Using this administration screen, you can print a test page, stop your printer in its tracks, manage your networked printers and print jobs, and more–a very slick trick. Haven't tried it yet...anyone who does let me know how it worked!

If you literally "checked" them, meaning the checkboxes, that only affects their visibility. To remove them, select one and then click on the "minus" part of the "plus minus" at lower left.

Creating a Custom Event Log View Shortcut on a server desktop for an admin

Good morning,
We have a new admin starting and I would like to create custom event log view shortcut on there desktop for each server they need to check. Is there a way to do this in Server 2012 and Server 2008?
I have figured out how to create a shortcut of the Application and System log, but not Custom Views. Thanks.

Hi,
Based on my research, you can create a custom view like
this.However, I tried miltiple ways to create a shortcut of the custom view of the event viewer and no result. I can only create a shortcut of the event viewer. You may need a script can achieve that.
Best regards,

Print document's name in Event Log ID #307 on Server 2012

Creating a new printer server using Windows Server 2012. Everything is working out fine so far, however I just ran into one problem that didn't happen in our Server 2008R2 print server.
When looking at print jobs that have completed under: event logs --> Microsoft --> Windows --> PrintService --Operational, I have noticed that Event ID 307 is not displaying the printed document's name in Server 2012 (it did for Server 2008R2).
In Server 2012, the document name simply displays as "Print Document" instead of displaying the document's name.
Anyone have any ideas on how to get the document's name to properly display in the event logs?
Thanks for any help.

Hi Alan,
I have configured a Server 2012 R2 standard as print server to manage printers and Monitor the print usage of users, however I am not getting the Print logs (Event Log ID 307) in the default event logs directory on the print Server.
I perform some search and come to know that it’s a known problem in Server 2012 and there is Hotfix available. I installed the Hotfix mentioned here
http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/2938013/en-us , but still logs are not getting generated.
I also made the below setting for the logs.
Creating Registry entry
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Printers] "ShowJobTitleInEventLogs"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Printers] "ShowJobTitleInEventLogs"=dword:00000001
The policy name: Computer Configuration \ Administrative Templates \ Printers
Allow job name in event logs
Keep printed Docs setting is also enabled on all the printers installed on Print Server.
Noting seems to be working here or am i doing something wrong here.

Server 2012 Event 307 - Printed Document Name

I created a printer monitoring system that pulls events from the event logs of a server and then compiles this information into reports. I can tell how many pages printed per printer for a period of time, I can tell what users are my highest printers
and once in awhile for some reason I would actually review what was printed.
I use this data to determine when another printer is needed or not needed. I used the printed document name to justify not replacing a $5000 color laser printer. because they printed personal stuff more than business.
This process worked great until I installed Windows Server 2012, and I have tested this on Windows 8 and have the same result. (I only care about the server though. ;) )
In the event log: Microsoft-Windows-PrintService/Operational
In server 2003, event 10: Had printed document name
Server 2008 and Server 2008 R2: Had printed document name.
Why is this no longer there, or was this an oversight?
I asked this at TechEd and there was not a Microsoft person there who could answer my question and they referred me to the forums. Can someone tell me what I can do to turn this on, was this an oversight, bug, etc.

Hi,
What are the models of your printers?
I would like to confirm that have you update the printer drivers from the printer manufacturer for Windows Server 2012?
In addition, if you have Windows Server 2003, 2008, and 2012 in the same envirment? If so, you may try to get the event information from the previous operating system.

How can i use only black cartridge for printing documents

i have today installed hp 1510 all in one printer, it uses ink from the both cartridges i just want to use black ink for printing documents, how can i do that
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi @sandeepv
I can help you with your print settings, so the printer will print black and white only.
If you have a Mac operating system, use the instructions below.
Printing with the Black Print Cartridge Only option
Click File and then click Print.
Make sure your printer is selected.
Verify that the Preset option is set to Standard.
In the Copies & Pages menu, select Select Paper Type / Quality.
NOTE:If this option is not available, click ColorSync. Then click the down arrow beside Quartz Filter and change the setting from None to Black & White.
Select the Paper tab.
From the Color option menu, select Grayscale.
Select the Color Options tab.
Select the Black Print Cartridge Only option.
If that option is not listed, then it is not available. The printer will print using only the black cartridge, however, printing with one cartridge will be slower than printing with both cartridges.
NOTE:To save the setting, click the arrow next to Preset and select Save As. Save the Preset option as Black Cartridge Only and then click OK. Then, the next time you want to print with just the black cartridge, select the Black Cartridge Only Preset. -Source
If you are using a Windows operating system, use the instructions in the following link. Although this document is titled Changing Print Settings in Windows 8 it can be used for other Windows operating systems. The navigation from Windows 8 to older Windows operating systems would vary, please let me know if you are using a different operating system and/or if you require additional assistance.
I hope this helps.

Error message 'Display only possible for print documents'

Hi All,
This issue is with the transaction code ME21N. When the user clicks on PRINT PREVIEW it gives an error of 'Display only possible for print documents'. When the user clicks the MESSAGES tab and then COMMUNICATION METHOD tab it gives an error 'No communication data has been defined for transmission medium 6'. The vendor is not getting the order. Does anyone has any idea of what these error messages mean and where should I look further?

Barcode shows a bunch of squares when barcode is made on AI CS11. Does anyone know a fix for this? We have CS2 running on another PC and we don't get this problem.

Barcode shows a bunch of squares when barcode is made on AI CS11. Does anyone know a fix for this? We have CS2 running on another PC and we don't get this problem.
Background:
Using FrameMaker 7.1 to create a PDF file where a CS11 barcode file is embedded. PDF generates fine but we get a bunch of squares when we copy and paste the barcode data into Notepad.
We have CS 2 running on another PC and we don't get this problem. Do I need to install a plugin (if any) for CS11 to get this to work?
Thanks!

Thanks for your feedback. I was not able to mention earlier that in my line of work, we use Notepad to check if the barcode text is written correctly or if the corresponding text can be found if searched in the PDF... We use FREE3OF9.TTF font when entering text values for the barcode (usually in document/part number format exclusive for our company's use) in AI CS11. After saving the AI file, we attach it in a document using FrameMaker 7.1, then a PDF file is created. The output PDF will be a certification sheet for our products. They (our clients) should be able to scan the document/part number out of the barcode. I'm sorry, I could not divulge any other information so I am not sure if this clears out the issue. It used to work before but I had to get my PC formatted and since then I have been encountering this problem. I am trying to figure out if we missed to install a component or something got messed up after re-installing Adobe Illustrator CS11.

Perre wrote:I'm used to being able to pick one or a couple of songs and then adding it a specified playlist. Is this impossible in sonata?
It's clearly not impossible, just different than you expect. Create your playlist as you want it to appear in the Current tab (meaning don't dump every single song from your library in there, just the ones you want) and then save the playlist.

Look at save_absolute_paths_in_playlists in your mpd.conf.

How do "you" monitor event logs in SCOM 2012? Need opinions.

Fairly new to SCOM. Do you monitor all event logs? Just warnings and critical? How do you filter out things you don't want to see?
Looking for opinions here not just a "how-to".
Thanks,

Server 2008 R2 with WSUS need to specify location for Feature install for Server 2012 and Windows 8

Having a problem where we need to add .net 3.5, amongst other things, in server 2012 and windows 8.1. We're using WSUS on server 2008 R2, so when I go to add roles or features, I'm not able to as it tries to use Windows Update but it's set to use WSUS.
I'm aware in server 2012 gpo's that you enable the policy 'specify settings for optional component installation and component repair' in Administrative Templates>System, however that setting is not available in Server 2008 R2.
I've downloaded the templates from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36991 but the setting is still not there.
Any suggestions on how to do this/allow feature install with Server 2008 R2?

Hi,
To upgrade the Administrative Templates, please run the downloaded msi file, then copy the needed admx files and adml files to the PolicyDefinitions folder.
