This is a strange happening with one of our NDPS Printers. We are using an HP 4500 printer attached to a Netware 5.0 box with NDPS 2.0. This weekend I loaded SP6 and ran a vrepair on the volumes, not sure what that has to do with the problem but who knows. On Monday I was notified that the printer was not printing. I went to the the printer in Admin and looked at the "Job List" which contained several documents, some very large. I proceeded to try and delete the documents to clear the list. All would delete but one. Here's the strange part. Before I deleted the jobs some printed out. I was notified from the users that these jobs where from months ago and that some of the documents that had been printed have not been accessed for 5-6 months. How in the world would this stuff print out. One thing that got printed was a report that kicks out from a users program but is not saved anywhere, its ran then printed but not saved. It printed a report from October which could not have been pulled from file because its not saved. Any ideas on what happened. Thanks.
 
I had this problem too I think it was due to a problem with the printer memory HP replaced it and I have never had the problem again or it could have been the printserver I can't quite remember though as it was ages ago! Sorry to not be of more help but thought you might like to know you are not alone!
 
Well, better late then never...

Try take a look at TID 2959013.

It is a "Post CSP5 NDPS updates (Last modified: 02MAY2001)"

The patch is called NDP2XP6.exe
799963 bytes; Date/Time: 05-02-2001/12:09AM
It is a consolidation of all the latest NDPS version 2.x Post CSP5(consolidated patches for 5.0(SP6A) and 5.1(SP2)) updates.

Hope this helps!

 
Can anyone help? I have a NW5 (SP6a) at one location and one at another communicating over 56K link. Trying to send a print job to a queue locally which is serviced by a NDPS printer at remote site. Job does not leave queue. Get "Error - NDPS v2.00, Printer detals cannot be viewed....error number 305" while trying to check with NWAdmin. This only happens once in a while but it is getting to be annoying.

Appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks
