Hi ALL,
we are using windows 2000 sp-2 and we have somany hp printers installed.
when ever there is a print problem the retry print pop-up box is displayed
and we click retry manually.
is there way to automate this automatically.

thanks in advance.

yes but the better solution is retry without throwing the dialog.

1.. Start Registry Editor (Regedit.exe) and locate the following subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Provider
2.. Edit the following information:
Value Name: RetryPopup Data Type: REG_DWORD Value: 0 to disable popup; 1
to enable popup
(default is 1 on Win2k , 0 on XP)
