printUIEntry; install printer to remote client machine
Hi,
I used the following reference link to add printer to a remote computer. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/314486 I got the message: Operation could not be completed. Either the printer name was typed incorrectly, or the specified printer has lost its connection to the server." Here are my lines: rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /ia /c\\HP323.ourdomain.com /m "HP LaserJet 4240 PCL 6" /h "Intel" /v "Windows 2000 or XP" /f S:\IS\Install\Printers\HP4240_BW\english\Drivers\W in32_2000_XP_S2003\PCL6\hpc4x50c.inf rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "Test Printer" /c\\HP323.ourdomain.com /f S:\IS\Install\Printers\HP4240_BW\english\Drivers\W in32_2000_XP_S2003\PCL6\hpc4x50c.inf /r "IP_10.14.23.44" /m "HP LaserJet 4240 PCL 6" This works if I were to take out /c\\computername, created TCP/IP port for it, and installed on my local machine. What could I be missing? Hope to hear from somebody. Any responses and/or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!! |

Did you try just using the NETBIOS name of the server instead of using
the CN? cmschube |

I am having the exact same issue, I have not been able to find a solution. I am thinking maybe an approach through vbscript might be the solution. Let me know if you have found a solution. -- shmigel ------------------------------------------------------------------------ shmigel's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=40495 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=773962 http://forums.techarena.in |

printui needs to run in the user context when adding a connection for each
user. You can add a connection for the machine instead. Then each user that logs on after creating this entry will get that connection. http://members.shaw.ca/bsanders/NetPrinterAllUsers.htm I'm hoping I guessed what the issue was. -- Alan Morris Windows Printing Team Search the Microsoft Knowledge Base he http://support.microsoft.com/search/?adv=1 This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
