Hi,
Got a network with a Windows 2000 Server and NW5 server. Clients are using Windows 2000 Pro with NW Client 4.83 - clients are logging on to the MS domain aswell. Using non-ndps printers all served by NW.
Is there any kind of program like CON2PRT for adding printers to the Printer folder on Windows 2000? (I don't want them mapped to LPT ports)
Its quite a small network so currently they are just being installed locally. But really need a better solotion.
Secondly Point & Print doesn't seem to be working when going to \\servername\qname Windows comes up and says the server hasn't got the correct drivers and then requests them - this occurs on all printers.
You are then asked to manually select the printer make and model.
Point & Print has been set up by a admin as normal by right clicking on the printer name and adding Windows 2000 drivers - the drivers are in the correct location on the server.
P&P works fine on our 95/98 clients - I've tried reinstalling the drivers and I've just deleted all the older 95/98 drivers which hasn't helped.
Thanks in advance.
Ash.
