Hi,

I just recently upgraded the network we have to w2k server. I setup the printer shares and then added the following line to the login script to setup the printer driver on each machine :-

rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /in /c \\servername /n \\servername\colorljl

The printer is an old color laserjet 5 and although it installs the print driver successfully when users go to print the printer stops with the error "Load Letter". This is due to the default paper source setting on the printer being set to letter not A4, change it in the settings and it prints fine.

I have tried setting the default paper source on the server driver to A4 but with no luck! Does anyone know how I can set the driver so it defaults to A4 not letter?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Kind Regards,

Amb3rsil
