Subject: Disabling Bidirectional support network wide.
Date: Thu, 22 Apr 2004 08:21:32 -0700
I need to disable bidirectional support on all printers
network wide. Is there a registry hack or group policy
that will allow me to do this?
---------------------
You can enable/disable bidirection support using the rundll32 printui.dll
method, here is an example:
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /Xs /n "HP LaserJet 4050 Series PCL6"
attributes -EnableBidi
- You can find more about the syntax for this by typing:
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /?
and
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /Xs /n "HP LaserJet
4050 Series PCL6" ?
at the command line (of course, sub in the name of your printer)
This control over the printers can also be done using prnadmin.dll, see
prnadmin.doc in the Windows 2000 Resource Kit
This is the closest I can get you, you'll have to do some creating
scripting I guess.
