We have a requirement where there are 160+ plant locations around the UK and they all use Axis 5600+ print servers which connect to the printers via LPT1. i have all the IP addresses of the print servers, however no matter how i configure the printer in SPAD, i cannot seem to get the print to the destination. I have selected the OKI341(and several others) device types and different Host Spool Access Methods. i have the IP address and ports being used, but i just cannot find the right combination to be able to successful create a single print out! am i missing something when printing using this method? the plants will all be using thin clients with these printers hanging off of a windows XP terminal that is only networked via this Print Server! i know this is old technology, but compared to some of the issues i have come across i feel this should be straight forward! am i asking the impossible? or just not found the right combination?
