DOCUMENT:Q97756 30-JUL-2001 [lanman] TITLE :3Server/Suppressing Extra Printed Page PRODUCT :Microsoft LAN Manager PROD/VER: OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== SUMMARY ======= If you try to change printer properties on a 3Server by browsing from a remote workstation/server, the option for Printer Properties is dimmed. This usually does not present a problem, but to suppress an extra printed page using the MSNULL driver, you need to be able to change the Form Feed Control to none, and perhaps change the Default Spool File Type from PM_Q_STD to PM_Q_RAW. The article titled "How to Add a Printer Driver on a 3Server," Q94232, describes how to add additional printer drivers to a 3Server by editing the OS2SYS.INI on the remote workstation, then copying the updated file to the 3Server via a 3C Connection. Use that procedure here, with one enhancement: because the printers that are normally created on a PC Server include the printer properties, as well as port information, it will be necessary to create these on the viewing workstation/server also before transferring the resulting file to the 3Server. Note: Bear in mind that this makes a global change to the Printer Properties. If all applications print correctly, and only one causes an extra page to print, the application's printing setup should be checked for an extra form feed at EOJ.
