Re: 3rd party print monitors

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Absolutely! Take them one at a time: uninstall the 3rd party driver
and map it to a windows driver. Test from a client to verify that
the printer is redirected, using the windows driver (check the
EventLog, make sure that informational printer messages are enabled
on the TS, in Printers and Faxes - File - Server settings -
Advanced), then take the next driver.

Vera,
Can I test this on the system by removing selected
drivers and it
won't affect the other. Just want to get the format correct.
