- Novell Advanced Netware versions 2.10 and above provide two
- utilities to help user's customize their network printing
- requirements. These utilities are PrintDef and PrintCon.
- PrintDef is used to define the network printers, low level
- printer functions, and higher level print modes, as well as
- all the forms to be printed. Each user is then required to
- define his or her print requirements using the PrintCon
- utility.
-
- For most users this is a difficult process. LAN managers must
- therefore define all these jobs for each user. With PrintCon
- Novell only provides a LAN manager the option of copying this
- definition from one user to another.
-
- There is no utility to replicate this information from one
- user to a group of users, or to all users. PrintCop provides
- the facility for a LAN manager to customize a definition for
- one users and copy that information to a group of users or
- all users. Thus resulting in saving considerable time and
- energy for LAN managers.
-
- Installation is very simple:
- 1) If you are updating from a previous version:
- Delete all files in the PrintCop subdirectory.
- goto step 5.
- 2) Create a subdirectory for the PrintCop program on your
- network drive.
- 3) Assign the proper Trustee Rights for the new subdirectory.
- 4) Assign the proper rights to the MAIL subdirectory so that
- users of the PrintCop utility can update all the required
- custom print job information.
- 5) Copy the PrintZip.exe file (on your diskette) to the
- PrintCop directory on your network.
- 6) Execute PrintZip.exe.
- 7) Delete Printzip.exe.
