Where is the printer configuration info stored?

I need to configure printing for a whole lab, and while I can configure an individual machine for one user via the Print/Fax option of System prefs, I can't find where all that info gets stored (some of it is in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.PrintingPrefs.plist, but not all) and I can't figure out how to slide that in as a whole-system configuration. Where is the per-user information stored, and where can I move it so that it applies system-wide?

The printer queues are global so most of the information is not kept under any particular user. The path you mentioned keeps user relevant information, such as Presets.
If the printers are using files that are included with 10.5, then the majority of compressed driver files are kept in ./Libary/Printers/Vendor or ./Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/en.lproj for PostScript PPDs.
When you add a printer queue, some of the information is kept in ./etc/cups. This includes the printers.conf file which has details about the added printer queues and the decompressed PPD that was selected during the queue creation.
So if you are looking at copying the data from one Mac to reduce your setup on all the other Mac's, then you may have to tell us the make and model, as there could also be a number of additional directories/files you need.

Where is the server configuration data stored?

Where is the server configuration data stored?
<P>
The data is stored an ASCII file named server.conf

UME user data is stored in one or more data sources. Each type of data source has its own persistence adapter. The persistence manager consults the persistence adapters when creating, reading, writing, and searching user management data. Persistence adapters for the following types of repositories are available: 1. Database: See the Product Availability Matrix on SAP Service Marketplace (http://service.sap.com/pam60) for details on which databases are supported. 2. u2022 Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory: See the Product Availability Matrix on SAP Service Marketplace (http://service.sap.com/pam60) for details on which directories are supported. 3. SAP Systems based on Web Application Server 6.20 You can configure UME to use one or more of these persistence devices in parallel. Users can also be stored in several different physical LDAP directory servers, or in different branches of the same LDAP directory server.

Where is the Gracenote track info stored for a CD?

I have a CD entitled Blue Hour by Stanley Turrentine. Gracenotes recognized this incorrectly as a Jose Feliciano CD. I would like to delete that info from the Gracenote database and enter the correct info, so I can correctly import the CD into iTunes. Any ideas? Thanks.

Hello,
One way to get around that is to select the CD in your iTunes Library, then Command + I which will prompt the Get Info window. Click the Info tab and type in the correct title for the album. Conversely, you can delete Gracenote information the same way.

Where did the print setting "Rewrap message to fit" go in Mail 7?

Where did the print setting "Rewrap message to fit" go in Mail 7?
All text prints too small. Settings for font size haven't changed and the emails print out much smaller than the view settings.
I don't see the options for "Rewrap message to fit" or "Keep fonts the same size".
Suggestions?

I have the same problem. Text and the info with the "To" header all prints very small. I also cannot find the controls described. Just updated to Mavericks, never had problem before this. Same printer, and problem also occurs on another different model printer I tried for a test.

HP Officejet Pro 8600 Wireless - Where are the printing shortcuts?????

HP Officejet Pro 8600 Wireless Printer
Windows 7
Where are the printing shortcuts?????
I just replaced a canon printer that died that had the concept of PROFILES, so that I could setup a PROFILE for each type of printing, i.e. 4X6 photos/documents/5X7 photos. So it was easy for our family to print, they would pick each setting.
Now with latest driver for 8600 there are NO way to save a set of settings for a printer. I have seen some old discussions on this but I just can't believe HP doesn't have this type of functionality in their drivers. I don't need the ePrint and all the other bogus stuff installed with the 8600 driver, but I DO NEED the ability to save different sets of printing options so I don't have to remember, borderless or not, landscape or not, etc and keep wasting photo paper/ink/regular paper with incorrect options.
Here is another posting with similar points -> Customers are NOT getting full print functionality. We don't care about the extra software, it is minimal. Full functionality includes the ability to create profiles for different printing situations so that the user can easily choose that profile (and therefore all the myriad settings for that profile). What HP has done is give us ONE profile, essentially, and every time you want to do something different, you have to change that ONE profile. How is that helping?
As I said, if I want to switch from a normal printing job (e-mail, web page, etc.) which uses my ONE setting, and then want to print a 4x6 photo, I have to remember to change at least 6 different settings. With the shortcut, I would select my "borderless photo" shortcut, and it would automatically switch paper trays, size, color, quality, you name it. Now you force me to change that each and every time.
If someone can explain why this is considered full functionality I would be extremely grateful.

Hello,
I am sorry you are having trouble with your print experience.
I am going to make some assumptions here, which could be wrong in your case, but might help others. Since you mention printing from Windows7 and ePrint in the same thread, can I assume you are trying to print using the HP ePrint driver for windows (www.hp.com/go/eprintsoftware) ? The ePrint driver also comes preinstalled on all HP laptops and pcs now, so maybe you made a recent pc purchase and therefore have the ePrint driver installed?
The goal of the ePrint windows driver currently has a lot less to do with providing the hundreds of print features and settings that the full featured, product specific print drivers provide. The goal is to enable customers to be able to print to any recent or new HP printer through a number of different connection paths from a single installed print driver / print queue. Once the ePrint driver is installed, printing with that driver will dynamically find direct network printers, cloud enabled printers, public print locations, direct wireless printers, etc., and create the correct print format depending on the print path taken. If the printer is ePrint cloud enabled and has a good internet connection, the printer and the pc do not have to be in the same location. For example, you can print from home to your printer at work. You can send photos of the kids to your mom's printer in another state, etc. The ePrint solution is also good for the traveling worker who just wants to send the occasional print job to the nearest network or wireless direct printer without having to find and install another print driver for each new printer. One driver, one queue and you can print to any recent or new HP printer.
The ePrint driver has a few important print settings that customers may want to use (copies, duplex, grayscale, etc). More may be added over time depending on demand.
BTW, because the ePrint driver does not have a ton of print settings to handle, the rendering of print jobs is as simple and efficient as possible and should not bog down your pc.
If you want all the bells and whistles in the print driver experience and just want to print to a single printer you can download and install the product specific print driver from hp.com
I hope that helps out a few people who may be wondering what the purpose of ePrint is!!
Good luck.

I have a new wireless printer. Where is the print button on my iPad?

1. Buy a AirPrint enabled printer; see list below
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
2. Run the CD provided and setup as network printer; this will setup your printer to the same network as your iPad

3. Start printing from your iPad without wire

Where is the printer head located on the MP600?

Where is the printer head located on the Canon MP600 and how do I remove it? I have had my printer for over 7 years with absolutely no problems! Then, yesterday, after I replaced an ink cartridge, it would not print at all -- keep getting the message "Wrong Printer Head - Replace Printer Head" - I removed all the cartridges and re-inserted them, but that did no good. One suggestion I found on-line said to remove the printer head and re-install it -- Where is it located???

Hi mjomeara,
To reseat the print head in the unit, please follow the steps located here. Once the print head is reseated, please turn off the printer, unplug the power cord and leave it out for at least 10 minutes, then plug it back in and turn the printer back on. If you still receive the print head error, the printer will require servicing. Please call or email us using one of the methods on the Contact Us page for further assistance.

Where is the print-carriage access door?

Where is the "print carriage access door"? I had a paper jam, which I think I've cleared, but I continue to get this message. Frustrating!

Hi Juno2,
The print carriage access door is under the scanner. The whole scanner assembly lifts up. This page has a video that shows the location (starting at about 5:40).
A 'Paper Jam' Message Displays for HP Officejet Pro 8500
There are also illustrations in the "Solution three: Check the carriage path and reseat the printheads" section of the page.
I hope this helps.

HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus Where is the print preview???

I just purchased HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus all in one printer. Where is the print preview option. It's no longer on "preference" or anywhere else.

Since HP isn't answering me on the 'Print Preview' being available soon or which HP printers software actally HAVE the 'print preview' function enabled... I did some searching and I found a partial answer to the 'print preview' delema. The web site http://www.obviousidea.com/windows-software/greencloud-printer/
has a free program called GreenCloudPrinter which, in a nut shell, will install a printer called GreenCloud which set itself up as the default printer and any file that is sent to the printer gets directed to the GreenCloud device which will then bring up a 'print preview' screen with options to remove blank pages and or print or not print the preview! And a lot of other functions too. Works great and it's free. You do have to register it and a registration code is emailed to you to unlock the program. I hope that helps you out... worked for me.

HT4867 Now that I've switched to ICloud where are the mailboxes that were stored on my Mac?

Now that I've switched to ICloud where are the mailboxes that were stored on my Mac?

On your mac, mailboxes are listed under one of several categories. Some are "on my mac" and others are in "icloud". Those emails in mailboxes "on my mac" are strictly local, they do not connect with iCloud. As Julian points out, all mailboxes on your mac are still there. They will not be on your other devices.

THIS IS DRIVING ME CRAZY - WHERE IS THE PRINTER CODE

I cant find the printer code????
I cant set up eprint ((
Help - where is the printer code!!!!

Which printer do you have? Were you able to enable web services on your printer? The reason I asked is because once Web Services is activated, ePrint for your printer also gets activated. When ePrint gets activated it will assign an email address to your printer. The printer code is actually the email address minus "@hpeprint.com".
Let me know if it works.
