Hi guys
I have up till now used jetadmin to install printers, but i believe that jetdirect has overtaken jet admin as the standard tool.
my question is is that true and if has someone got the link so that i can download it.

As far as I'm aware "jetdirect" is the name of the card connecting printers to the network. "Jetadmin" is still the software to configure the jetdirects.

Andrew,

I believe the point Harry is trying to make is that you need to assign points to responses to your questions.

So far you have assigned points to 1 of 61 responses to your questions.

When I converted to the jetdirect print installer, I linked 'hppi' to 'jetadmin'. Then I did not train the operators, just let them continue. (I have the operators configure printers and only call me if they break something.)

There was a procedure to convert the printer queues. I have it somewhere in my desk if anyone needs it.

Hope it helps

John

The new jetadmin application is called HP Printer Installer and there is no need to create the link if the only thing the operators are doing is add or delete printers. Both the old JetAdmin and new HPPI products contain the addqueue and removequeue commands. You can either edit /etc/PATH to add the HPPI executable to everyone's path, or put a PATH addition in the operator's .profile to make addqueue and removequeue easy to use.
