Oce, Print server/Qserver and NDPS Printer agents

We have an Oce TDS600 (the controller for an Oce 9600 plotter and a large format scanner). We tried a long time ago to set it up as a NDPS printer but it never worked right. We then went to the tried and true queue based printing (printer, print server and queue) and things were cooking along well until we upgraded the server hosting all of this from NW 5.1 to NW 6.5. Two of the three printers being serviced through "qserver mode" would not print. The main printer we use, the Oce was one of these (the other was an HP 2800CP large format color inkjet plotter). the printer that kept working was a Xerox DocuColor 3535.
The only clues we had were that the print server was listed as being down. We tied recreating the printers, print servers and queues, no joy. After a day of panic, the only thing that got it working was to set up NDPS printer agents and have them service the queues through LPR. This broke the log jamb and allowed us to get the back log of print jobs in the queues.
So, what did I mess up? What about NW 6.5 doesn't like legacy printing? We still cant print directly through the NDPS Printer agents, but we can print through the queues. There are LPR communication problems between the PA and the TDS600 controller. I couldn't find anything on the naming for the LPR printer for this model of Oce Printer (the external controller is not an EFI fiery) so I left it at the default of "PASSTHROUGH".
Any clues?

Well, PASSTHROUGH is virtually always wrong. The following TID gives the correct name to use for a
number of printers:

If your printer is not listed, then check the printer documentation. While many printers do not include
instructions on how to use the printer from Novell's NDPS or iPrint, they generally include instructions
on how to access the printer from Unix machines or from Windows machines using LPR. In those
instructions or sample configuration files, you generally find the correct name to use in the LPR
configuration.

What is the print server username and password?

I am trying to install a Kodak ESP 5210 printer.
I set up the printer - it is on my wireless network.
I installed the Kodak printer software - it too installed correctly.
At the final step I need to "add printer" I click + in the printer window.
I then choose the kodakaio directory under "Windows".
I then choose kodakesp5200_00.
I am asked for the print server username and password.
I tried my log in password with just my first name in lowercase as username as this field was filled out by default.
I tried lots of different things, including no password, but the printer "Add" button never becomes not greyed out.
Would appreciate help. Kodak were no help.
I have pinged the printer successfully so its definitely on the network.
Thanks

Because nothing is listed in the default printer directory

Terminal server 2003 and window7 printer

we have a terminal server 2003 and now added a windows 7 workstation running rdp. all printers except the new hp2025n show in session by loading the printdriver 2020 on the server. How ever on the windows 7 desktop I had to load the 2020 driver for windows 7. The win7 driver will not load on the server, error this platform not supported. I understand that the 2 drivers have to match for the printer to be used in rdp. The other printer that come across is a black dell printer with no problems. so the driver is what I suspect is the issue.

Print server, AD, and Profile Manager

Having a number of issues that I can resolve regarding printing--I am trying to set up profiles in the Profile Manager, but printers are not available or visable. However they are visable in the workgroup manager. The printers reside on Windows print server (2008 R2). Further I can add the printers to my server, but they are not visable in the "Printer Sharing" section of "sharing". So with that, I have a few questions:
1. Do I need to turn on Kerberos in CUPS? User's don't authenticate to our printers via Kerberos, but via the Account manager of the individual printers.
2. Why do settings in Workgroup manager not apply? I can add the printers via LDAP the the new groups I have added, but when I open profile manager the changes or printers are not implemented.
3. How do I make printers visible in Profile Manager?
I have scoured the net and several manuals, but I can seem to stumble upon the correct answer.

Hi,
I have the same issue, very frustrating. Using a Win 2003 AD and 10.8.2 server and clients. If i use WGM I can see all users and groups correctly, but Server.app and Profile Manager does not show them correct.
Strange that we see issues like this since Profile Manager has been around for a while, really interested to hear other peoples experiences.
PS I see a similar thing here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4417085?start=0&tstart=0

Print the Server, App and Db in Excel

Is there anyway to get essbase to place the server, application, and database name on an excel sheet? I would imagine something like a function in the vba commands would be perfect. I happen to have a great deal of data spread accross a variety of servers, applications, and databases (for a variety of reasons) and it would often be helpful to know exactly the source of a given report.Any suggestions would be appreciated.

It is definitely possible using the Essbase API, but unfortunately I don't think there is a way to extract this information using only the Essbase Excel VBA Toolkit. (Someone please correct me if I'm wrong)For the API you will want to first use the VBA Toolkit function EssVGetHctxFromSheet to get the Essbase context handle. Next you will want to use EsbGetActive to return the Application and Database names. Finally you will want to use EsbGetApplicationInfo to return the Server name. Let me know if you have any further questions or have any problems using these functions,- Jay---------------------------Jay NishSenior Business Intelligence ConsultantClarity SystemsEmail: [email protected]: www.claritysystems.com---Message Posted by trainoj 3/19/02 14:22---Is there anyway to get essbase to place the server, application, and database name on an excel sheet?

Print Agent - "Invalid" pdf

Hi,
I'm trying to use the print agent.
I use the following:
c:\Programas\Adobe\Central\Bin\jfmerge MODEL1 C:\DOCUME~1\D002404\ASPNET\DEFINI~1\Temp\200902021549206095_xml.tmp -axmlstrict -l -allc:\Programas\Adobe\Central\Server\Logs\TRNQ20090202.log -amq0 -m -zC:\DOCUME~1\D002404\ASPNET\DEFINI~1\Temp\200902021549206095_pdf.tmp -advTransCount=0 -aprC:\DOCUME~1\D002404\ASPNET\DEFINI~1\Temp\200902021549206095_pag.tmp -afpc:\Programas\Adobe\Central\Server\Forms\ -aiic:\Programas\Adobe\Central\Server\jfmerge.ini
The PDF is generated but the result is no good, i.e., I can open the pdf and see it normally, but if I try to print it using PDF Creator it gives an error. The final objective is to convert this pdf to FAX, with RightFax Conversor, which also gives an error.
I have also noticed that in the file properties (using ALt+Enter in the pdf selected file), in the PDF tab it doesn´t show the info - no Created date, no PDF Producer and the PDF version is 0.0.
This is very strange because if I do manually place the xml in data folder the pdf is generated correctly by Adobe Central. I have copied all the parameters from Central. It seems that I cannot create a good pdf calling directly the print agent :(
Does anyone have an ideia what I'm doing wrong?
Regards, Ariel.

I don't know what you may be doing "wrong" but we also experienced problems printing PDFs created by version 5.6 of the software. Our solution was to copy the version 5.5 of the print agent to the server and use it for creating PDF files.

Print agent (JFPREAMBLE) control of ^trayin call

With Adobe Central v5.5 on win2003 Server. Is there a command at the print agent level that can switch printer trays? With a multi-page bill statement I need to print the first page on special stock and the balance on plain stock. The dynamic that makes it a print agent solution is the data file is a "record type indicator" format.
Thanks for any suggestions. Philip

I was able to work through it. Here is my JFPREAMBLE code if anyone can use it.
^define group:STARTDOC \page1
^define group:SWITCHPAGE \page1,"trayin 2".\field$POSITION.
good luck

Printer prints some PDF objects as filled (but shows borders only in preview). Print as image helps, but not for all computers. Acrobat X Pro, OCE printer.

We create PDF from Autocad using Adobe PDF printer. When printing that PDF file to OCE printer, some drawing objects are printed as filled (but Acrobat shows correctly - border only). If I open the PDF with Internet browser, I can see those objects as filled as well. If I print the PDF as image from some, not all computers - it prints ok, not filled.
Please help.

Printer Agent LIST with IP ADDRESS

Hi,
I am seeking a tool which will export a list of iPrint Printer Agent which must include the IP Address of each device.
In the old days (a good days), I used a utility for NetWare platform.
Does anyone know a such tool?
Thanks.

Acrobat generates error when printer selected. Occurs with Oce printer

"Microsoft Visuall C++
This Application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way"
This pops up whenever a user selects the Oce printer in the Print screen. Is there a fix for this?

Hi OBTwo, and a warm welcome to the forums!
That's the conversion process of PostScript to PDF in...
/usr/libexec/cups/filter/
It can have many causes, like damaged filters there, permissions, etc.
One possible way around it until you can find a fix is to Print as a PDF, or saving it as a PDF and printing from Preview in OSX.

Printer agent message on boot up

Each time I boot up I get the message " Do you want Printer agent to accept incoming network connections. Have checked my network and printer settings and don't see anything that I can change that would fix this.

Maybe this will help. If you monitor the "More Like This" box (top right), other threads appear. Opening them usually displays other threads. See next to last post.

How to add sql server (SQLEXPRESS) AND sql server Agent(SQLEXPRESS) in sql server Configuration Manager

When I had uninstall Sql Server 2008 R2, that time I had uninstalled instances (SQLEXPRESS and MSSQLSERVER) and again installed sql server 2008 r2 setup .
Before uninstalling from control panel >Uninstall program showed two setups
1) Microsoft sql server 2) Microsoft sql server R2 , I uninstalled both.
As i installed SQL R2 again, it is showing only 1 instance ie "Microsoft sql server R2" but the other instance is some how missing -"Microsoft sql server" and
also sql server (SQLEXPRESS) AND sql server Agent(SQLEXPRESS) services from sql server configuration manager are missing
How to retain the missing instance and the above services?
Plz give replay

Hi Tushar,
I need to ask you a question here.
Why you require SQL Express edition on your machine, if there is no need you can safely ignore it and continue using SQL Server 2008 R2 edition.
Express edition can also get installed if you happen to have installed Visual Studio 2010 for instance.
If you need it then you must install SQL Server Express edition, It is a freeware and can be download from Microsoft website.

Server Time and Local Time (Dreamweaver) Off By 1 Hour

How can I get Dreamweaver to show me the correct time stamp on my files on the server and my local machine? When I telnet into my server, the date and time stamp on all files is correct. My server time is set properly to ET (GMT-5). My local machine's time is properly set. I asked my sysadmin if PureFTP has any timezone settings and I was told by the sysadmin that all my server times and timezones are accurate. My sysadmin said that Drwamweaver is the culprit.
I have lived with this for a long time, but it is extremely annoying and I would like to fix it.
I searched high and low in the Dreamweaver option settings for some sort of timezone setting or offset -- found nothing.
Has anyone experienced a 1-hour out-of-sync issue between a file's actual time stamp on the server and what Dreamweaver shows it as in the Remote/Local Files View?
Thanks.

During Daylight Savings Time.

Setting up a new server - terminology and set up

I have a new mac OS X snow leopard mac mini server.
The set up is a follows:
The modem goes into the Time capsule router and from the time capsule there is the mac mini server and also a network printer. There are 4 other computers wirelessly 'attached' to the time capsule.
I am very confused about some of the terminology and the set up procedure.
First of all, I might have made a mistake when I did my initial setup without being attached properly to a public IP address. I set up my server inadvertently as hobbes.private. When I go to the server preferences now the DNS is listed as hobbes.private. First of all, is there anyway to change that?
The set up goes as follows:
I have a public IP address which is set at the router. From the router there is a designated IP address which goes to the server.
I have my A records and MX records set up.
my Domain name is hobbeswiki.com
the IP address is 114.160.205.178
When I do an NS lookup IP address, I get this:
Non-authoritative answer:
178.205.160.114.in-addr.arpa name = p4018-ipngnfx01morioka.iwate.ocn.ne.jp.
I've been told that this is normal.
I use a company in australia for my domain name and they have given me 2 name servers:
ns1.secure.net
ns2.secure.net
The router then takes the info and then gives me an IP address for the server
its a 10.X.X.X number.
When I set up my server properly with the IP address, it set up as hobbes.local and under available servers, under network in the server admin, it gives me
Ethernet (en0) Family IPv4 the 10.X IP address and the DNS name as hobbes.local
I tried setting up DNS but it won't take.
I don't know how to set up kerberos, but I want to get the functionality of the podcasting etc, but it tells me I need it.
I have an SSL certificate.
With all this info, how can I set this server up and do I need to start from scratch? Do I need to erase the current server and start from the beginning? Is this hobbes.private causing problems?
In the DNS settings there are just so many different names for different things and I'm not sure what goes where.
I have a lynda.com account, but I'm not sure their info is the same as mine and they have words like server.samplename.com etc...
Can someone help?
The web set up works and I've got a couple users and groups set up to try things out, so it's not a complete failure.... I just can't get anything else to work.
Thank you!
Yomogi

Yes you can. Ideally make also sure that your ISP sets the PTR record for 217.36.255.25 to myserver.address.com
