Re: Windows Error creating a TCP/IP port



Alan, I am having a similar problem. How do I determine the Queue name ?

You will need to specify the protocol type and port number if something
other than 9100 or if the protocol is LPR you need the queue name for the
LPD service.

Got a neighbor? I have not purchased a power washer yet because I can
borrow my neighbors when I need one once every couple years. I can't really
same more.

Doesn't look like prnport came with Home. Any other work around ideas ?
Can
I redirect a currnt port to an IP address? Or is there a way to get
prnport.vbs other than buying XP pro ?

Thanks Alan, I'll try this. Do I need to be in a certain directory when
I do
this ?

I am assuming I would type:

prnport -a -r IP_192.168.2.4 -h 192.168.2.4

correct ? Then after this I just go into the printer preferences and the
port should be on this list of ports to choose from ?

Thanks,
Michael

you can use prnport.vbs in system32. I don't remember if this file
ships on
HOME version but it's on Pro.

prnport.vbs will create Standard TCP/IP port without UI.

prnport /?

Another question,
Is there a work around, like:
1) creating a TCP/IP port manually, not using the wizard (possibly by
creating a new port type that just happens to be a TCP/IP port) if so
how
would I do this ? (it asks for a printer INF)
2)re-direct an alreay existing port to the IP address (I only have an
IP
address and don't have it as a network address, i.e.
nextworkplace\printername, if I need this how do I turn an IP address
into
a
network address)
3)any other work around ??

Thanks,

So I try to find any of the files listed as being included in the
error
report and they do not exist, either in the folder it says it should
be
in,
or anywhere on the hard disk?

I also searched for any .mdmp files and only found 1 from 2005 that
had 0
bytes in a PCHealth folder.

Any thoughts for next thing to try? thanks

You are half way home Dorthy.

XP shipped with a debugger called ntsd.exe in system32.

we are going to dump the stack trace of the application crash file
to
display the fault.

in a command window change directories to get to the mdmp file

then type
ntsd -z DRWTSN32.EXE.mdmp

this will bring you to a prompt similar to this

type k, then <enter> to dump the stack.

copy the output and send it back.

I am indeed trying to create a standard TCP/IP port. None of
the
following
files are in the windows\system folder, they are all in the
windows\system32
folder

Wsnmp32.dll, Ntprint.dll, Tcpmib.dll, Mgmtapi.dll, or
Snmpapi.dll
file

should I be looking for any other files? Any other ideas?

I assume you are creating a Standard TCP/IP Port not the HP

I have been attempting to install an HP printer on my home
network.
It
has
an IP address (which I can access via a brower, so the
connection is
fine),
but when I try to install the printer, either using HP
installer
software,
or
manually using XP add a printer, or even creating a new
TCP/IP
port
for
an
existing printer, windows always experiences en error and
crashes
(not
full
crash). This happens on both my laptop and desktop (both
running
XP),
I
have seen a few posts on other sites saying others have
observed
this,
but
no
solution to the windows problem. Any ideas for why
windows has
this
error
everytime, or how to fix, or even a work around?? Any help
appreciated.
