how to stop a message on printing
Using XP Professional
On a LAN When I print I get a "Messenger Service" pop up message giving me details of the print job. The same message also appears on my computer when another computer (using WIN 98) on my network prints from a DOS program. How do I stop this from happening? |

how to stop a message on printing
Greetings Bill,
Most likely the printer is what's sending this back. As a quick solution, you could simply disable the Messenger Service (assuming it's not used for any other purpose) by clicking Start, then Run, enter "services.msc"and click OK. Scroll down to "Messenger", select it, right-click and then choose Properties. Under startup type, choose 'Disabled' and then choose the 'Stop' button. After the service is stopped, click OK. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "Bill WBCPC" wrote in message ...
