What is difference between using VIrtual USB port and standard TCP/IP port

Have a dv6t 2000 laptop and connecting to a photosmart 6150
Trying to figure out why I have two printer devices installed for the same printer, actually three, one says 6100 series (have to connect to laptop docking station), one says 6100 series 1 (this one i can print to wirelessly) and the last one says 6100 series fax.
Both the 6100 series and 6100 series 1 only allow me to scan when it is docked but i can print wirelessly to series 1.
is there a way to scan wirelessly as well.  Allprinters are shared home network.

Let's handle the easy one first.  The 6100 series fax icon was installed by the HP software as a printer so that you can select that printer from a program.  When you select the 6100 series fax to print to, it sends out that document as a fax skipping the hard copy step of faxing.
When you look at the icons in the printers folder keep in mind that those are for printing not scanning.  Those icons do not represent a scanner being installed.  It would appear that you have setup the HP software once when docked.  I am assuming that the printer is attached USB to the laptop dock.
To clear this up, delete the series 1.  That is your network print icon.  Once it is deleted, undock the laptop and then rerun the HP software.  It should come up to a menu where you can select Add a Device.  Go through the network install and it should put a series 1 icon back into the printers folder but also enable scanning over wireless.

  • What is difference between using interface as source and table as source?

    I am working on a batch flow which need several steps to populate data from source to target. For example, I need 5 interfaces to finish final data loading. I can either use interface or use temporary table as source and target for the interface 2, 3, and 4. It looks like both case will use tables no matter use interface or use temporary table. So my question is if there is any difference between these two (using interface as source or use temporary table as source)?
    Thanks

    if you use a Table as source for the intermediate process, it will create a physical temporary table i your work rep(depends on you choice) and populate the data into the table. if you use a interface as a source, just it will create a sub query instead of temporary table.
    Thanks

  • Getting Big Headache, What is difference between Flash Lite 3.1 and Flash Player 7

    Hello, I am asking questions about the two similar yet different programs for Pocket PC version only:
    1) Which came first, Flash Lite 3.1 or Flash Player 7?
    2) If I have both in my Pocket PC, will there be product incompatibility?
    3) What is the difference between Flash Lite 3.1 and Flash Player 7.
    4) I have a Flash Lite 3.1 but uninstall information says "Flash Lite 3.1 for Opera Mobile", did you releaase this? Is this an illegal copy? A developer's copy?
    *I don't know exactly where I got it, but I got it from the HTC developer's forum: XDA-developers.com
    *I also use Opera mobile, a web browser for Pocket PC's.
    5) What is difference between Flash Lite 3.1 and Flash Lite 3.1 for Opera? Is the only difference is that Flash Lite Supports everything flash related, while Flash Lite Opera supports only flash in opera?
    Hi, I don't expect all answers, but I hope someone or someone from adobe support can clear some things up for me.

    The program under my "remove programs" list is specifically called "Adobe Flash Lite for Opera". The XDA forums people said along time ago that it was Flash Lite, and kept calling it Flash Lite, and not Flash Player 7.
    Now what about this:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashlite/version/
    The table shows the differences between FP 7 SDK, FL 2.1, and FL 3.1. And it's quite obvious that FL 3.1 has way more features than Flash Player 7. What does SDK mean? And why are you telling me FP 7 has more features?
    With this information, can you or anyone else provide any more details and clarification?

  • Difference between use of decision table and if/then in business rules

    Hello ,
    Could some one please explain me difference between use of decision table and if/then in business rules in short.
    - Shirish

    Hi,
    They are equivalent, pretty much what you can do with a decision table you can also do with if/then...
    However, decision tables provide automated features that can reduce the number of required rules, as compared to the if/then rules (this is called rule coalescing).
    Have a look on this document... Search for 5.1.1 What is a Decision Table?

  • Whats the difference between sending messages via socket and MQs?

    Whats the difference between sending messages via socket and MQs?

    Soph wrote:
    Whats the difference between sending messages via socket and MQs?With JMS (and the like) your application uses a socket to connect to a central server called a "*Message Broker*". Over this connection it can send or receive messages.
    A Message Broker is somewhat analogous to a database server. Multiple clients connect to it to exchange messages. As with a database a client first establishes a connection, then requests specific facilities like subscriptions.
    It creates a strong decoupling between sender and receiver and handles stuff like allowing multiple receivers for the same message, queuing of messages for applications not currently running and so on.
    (And don't worry, you can get perfectly good message brokers for free such as openMQ and activeMQ.)

  • Difference Between Cahs Sales, Rush Order and Standard Order

    Hi gurus,
    I want to know whole configration for rush order and difference between 1. Rush order and cash sales. 2. cash sales and standard order.
    Would u please help me for this...
    Regards
    Prashant.

    Hi,
    1) Cash sale : in this delivery automatically happen when you save the sales order.  After that you have to give an invoice to the customer.
    2) Rush order. Here also delivery automatically happen when you save the sales order. But the difference is you can send invoice after some time but the delivery should happen immidately.
    If you goto any super market first, you pick up the item and then pay the bill and then you will get the bill, this process is cash sales.
    Cash sales is order related billing whereas RO is delivery related.
    Cash sales is not relevant for availability check as you will be picking the goods whereas RO is relevant for availability check.
    Cash sales is also not relevant for credit management whereas RO is relevant credit management.
    Cash sales uses RD03 as output which immediately prints the invoice whereas RO uses standard output RD00.
    Cash sales has one time customer account group where as RO normally doesn't.
    For cash sales order type is BV or CS and for RO it is RO
    Cash sales triggers petty cash a/c where as in RO customers account is debited.
    Delivery and settlement will be done immediately in cash sales where as in RO only delivery will be done immediatrly.
    Rush Order/Cash Sales u2013 
    Rush orders and Cash sales are sales document types that are used in the sales from plant process or when the customer needs to pick their goods immediately from the warehouse.
    In the sales document type, the following changes have to be made for rush order/cash sales u2013
    a. order type u2013 RO/CS
    b. shipping conditions u2013 immediately
    c. immediate delivery u2013 X
    d. lead time in days u2013 not to be specified
    e. delivery type u2013 LF/BV
    f. billing type u2013 F2/BV
    g. item category u2013 TAN/BVN 
    h. schedule line category u2013 CP/CP
    In case of rush orders and cash sales once the goods have been withdrawn from the warehouse, picking and posting goods issue can begin.
    In case of rush orders, when you create the billing documents the system prints the invoice papers and sends them to the customer.
    But in case of cash sales, an order related billing index is generated automatically. This updates the billing due list. Billing type BV is created, while the billing due list is being processed and the system does not print invoices during billing for a cash sale. 
    In cash sales when you save the order, the system automatically generates a cash receipt that can be given to the customer as an invoice and the goods are picked up from the warehouse immediately by the customer. You control the output with output type RD03, contained in the output determination procedure for order type CS.
    Best Regards,
    Amit

  • What's the difference between using a connection pool and a datasource

    Howdy. I figure this is a newbie question, but I can't seem to find an
    answer.
    In the docs at bea, the datasource docs say
    "DataSource objects provide a way for JDBC clients to obtain a DBMS
    connection. A DataSource is an interface between the client program and the
    connection pool. Each data source requires a separate DataSource object,
    which may be implemented as a DataSource class that supports either
    connection pooling or distributed transactions."
    In there it says the datasource uses the connection pool, but other than
    that, what is the difference between a connection pool and a datasource?

    Thanks for the info. I think it makes some sense. But it's a bit greek.
    I'm sure it'll make more sense the more I work with it. Thanks.

    Peter,
    Here is a more formal definition of a DataSource from the Sun site
    "A factory for connections to the physical data source that thisDataSource object
    represents. An alternative to the DriverManager facility, a DataSourceobject
    is the preferred means of getting a connection. An object that implementsthe
    DataSource interface will typically be registered with a naming servicebased
    on the JavaTM Naming and Directory (JNDI) API.
    The DataSource interface is implemented by a driver vendor. There arethree types
    of implementations:
    Basic implementation -- produces a standard Connection object
    Connection pooling implementation -- produces a Connection object thatwill automatically
    participate in connection pooling. This implementation works with amiddle-tier
    connection pooling manager.
    Distributed transaction implementation -- produces a Connection objectthat may
    be used for distributed transactions and almost always participates inconnection
    pooling. This implementation works with a middle-tier transaction managerand
    almost always with a connection pooling manager.
    Does that help clarify the distinction?

  • What is the difference between using the command "dsmgmt" and the "Managed By" tab when adding users to the local administrators Account on a Read-Only Domain Controller?

    When I use the
    "dsmgmt" command to add a user to the local administrators account of a RODC I can actually see the user when I use the "Show Role Administrators" parameter. However, I can't see the members of the
    group added to the "Managed By" tab of the RODC object in AD. Even though, the users added using
    "dsmgmt" and by the "Managed By" tab can all log in locally and have admin rights to the RODC. Are there any differences between these two ways of adding users to the local administrators account? 

    Hi,
    For groups, managedBy is an administrative convenience to designate “group admins”. Whatever principal listed in
    managedBy gets permission to update a group’s membership (the actual security is updated on the group’s AD object to allow this).
    In Win2008 and later managedBy also became the way you delegated local administration on an RODC, allowing branch admins to install patches, manage shares, etc. (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc755310(WS.10).aspx). 
    On the RODC, this is updating the RepairAdmin registry value within RODCRoles.
    So the difference between them should be only the way they do the same thing.

  • Whats the difference between the Flash Player runtime and Adobe AIR runtime?

    Hey all. I've been into coding for about 5 years now, but I'm a recent convert to Flash development. One of the questions I have at the moment is, considering that SWF files can be run by either Adobe Flash Player OR Adobe AIR, what's the real difference between the two runtime environments? What API's and Objects exist in one environment, but not the other?
    Basically what I'm more or less trying to establish is, when would I want to develop an SWF for AIR, and when would I want to develop for Flash Player, considering that Flash Player can also execute locally (providing support for creating "desktop applications").
    Thanks in advance,
                               Jay.

    Main Difference for the user: he also has to install the AIR runtime, that is about 15MB (Flash Plugin won`t do the job alone).
    The market penetration for AIR is way below that of flash, so your user needs a good reason to install the Runtime
    Also the System requirements are much more harder, you can`t use an Air application in XPSP1 for example.
    As a rule of thumb you could say: Use Air, if you want to have the user something saved locally, with AIR you have the possibility to write any fileformat to hard disk, with flash you can only use so called Local shared objects

  • No difference between using a local variable and a notifier in timed parallel loops?

    The example code "Pass Data With Notifiers.vi" that came with LV 7.1 illustrates using notifiers with parallel loops.  Just looking at two of the loops, the one that generates the sine wave and the one for "User 1", you can change the timing of the two loops and you can change the condition of the "Ignore Previous" status on the "Wait on Notification".  I have a special case of this to consider, where I'm wondering if there's any reason not to use a local variable instead of the notifier:
    Set the delay on the generator portion (which contains the Send Notification) to something very short, say 5 ms.  Set the delay on the User 1 (which contains the Wait on Notification) to something relatively longer, say 200 ms.  Set the Wait on Notification to False.  Now you have a situation where the User 1 loop action is contingent only upon the loop delay time, since each time the loop timer runs the loop there will always be a value in the notifier.  In this case it seems to behave just like the case where you update a local variable in the fast loop and read it in the slow one.
    Is my understanding correct?  Would there be a performance difference between the two methods?  What do you prefer in this situation and why?
    Thanks,
    Hosehead

    Hi H.,
    I think your idea is to write to a Global Variable in the data-producer VI, and read it in the data-consumer VI(?)
    One reason this might be less efficient than using Notifiers is if you want to graph every new value in the "consumer" - or make sure the value read in the consumer has changed at least once since the last loop.
    > since each time the [consumer] loop timer runs the loop there will always be a value in the notifier...
    > Would there be a performance difference between the two methods? 
    If you don't use the Notification "event" to synchronize the producer and consumer, then to be sure the consumer gets a new vaue, you've made the producer loop faster - every 5 ms - a waste of cpu-cycles.  More often the situation is reversed, that is, there's a consumer that needs to see every single new value, and (without events) the consumer must loop faster than the producer (to catch every new value) - this is called polling and it wastes cpu-cycles.
    Just about anytime one's tempted to make a loop execute "fast" to check on some value (or to make sure there's a fresh value,) there's an opportunity to improve performance through synchronization with events (including notifiers, queues, occurrances, semaphores, and rendezvous')
