Hi

Have client using filepro 5.0.11 on a windows 7 (64) bit machine
He has users on windows xp boxes (32) bit machines

I am mapping his drive as there drive letter I
they have bat file that has

PFDSK=I
PFPROG=I
PFPRINTER=perri
i:\fp\p menuname


printer perri is setup by pmaint as HPLASER with \\station1\sta1 for printer  \\station1 is users computer name \sta1 is share name for their printer
they have no problems accessing database and doing all functions until they go print
because the server is 64 bit and users are 32 bit can not create printer on the windows 7 box
drivers will not load.

error that comes up when running dreport as it tries to print

Cannot open print command
LPT1: error number –1
windows error #231:
All pipe instances are busy.


Any input on proper way to setup local printing for users on this setup would be appreciated


Thanks,

Dave Rottkamp Consulting
