Well, if you want to talk about that....

The big Canon iR series are likewise, well, poorly put together for anything more \
than a small workgroup. They print well enough, but they include a 'count' function \
that integrates well with the front panel. Only problem is every workstation has to \
be configured to print direct, no intervening server - not even direct print in \
iPrint will work. Of course it's not a big deal to capture printer data through \
iPrint and copier counts through the front panel, but accounting doesn't like that.

My only current heartburn with printing is with the current crop of Xerox drivers. \
Completely unsuited for a business network of any scale. </rant>

Is DS healthy?

Only problem I've had is occasional driver corruption; reinstall the driver and it's \
good. My suspicion is that it's a hardware problem with that cluster, but it's not \
important enough to debug.

Hi all,
We are running iPrint on a NW65sp7 server.  Clients are XPSP3, with iPrint 5.12

When we access the /ipp webpage to install printers, we are getting lots of "1392 \
Directory is Corrupt.. " type errors.  This is happening on various printers and \
various PCs. If I use Add/Remove Printers and browse the NDPS/Controlled Printers to \
manually install the printer, some if the printers have "Status: Raedy", while others \
have "Error: The network Address is invalid".

I have done a NDPS database sync on the Print Server. It all seems to be ok.

Has anyone seen this sort of thing before.  It has me stumped.  We eventually manage \
to combine uninstalling/reinstalling the iprint client, rebooting, and tweaking to \
get it working in most places, but it isn't a good advertisement for iPrint.

Open to any thoughts or suggestions.

Thanks,
