Re: .webpnp Driver file

I think the client user will need to be an admin user if the driver contains
a language monitor or print processor.

Thanks Alan For your guidance.

Actually we tried below steps and we are able to trigger the server to
generate .webpnp file.

1) We gave following command from our webpage:
http://servername/printers/printerModelXXX/.printer?createexe&83952128
2) Server is able to create webpnp file.
3) But now the problem the server is not able to send the webpnp file to
client.Client gets an error Access Denied.

Any help in this direction will be helpful.

the webpnp file is not stored on the print server, it's dynamically
generated when the client needs the print driver package. You need to
configure the client Intranet security to Medium or Medium high in order
to
make a true http connection to the server.

Open the printers folder on the client, RPC connection looks like
Printer on PrintServer

Http connection look like
Printer on http://PrintServer

Hi Alan

Please guide as to how disable RPC so that webpnp file gets created on
server and will be sent to client for driver installation.

Clustering is not required.

Hi Ryan

Is it necessary to have printer server installed in Cluster in order
to
have
drivers installed on client using .webpnp file.

In my setup I am not using any clustering, I have installed a
printer
on
my
server and shared it and IIS also.

From my client I am using follwing command
"http://ServerName/Printers
".I
get the details of printers installed on my server and after that I
am
clicking "connect".

Printer driver get installed on the client but server is not sending
data
through .webpnp file.


Thanks
