Disabling Print Notification dialog boxes


Applies to

Windows NT

Cause

In Windows NT versions 3.51 and 4.0, if the print notification is turned off and the printer is directly connected by means of a parallel or serial cable, error messages will appear on the server. While the error is displayed, printing will not resume even if the cause of the error is cleared from the printer. Log on to the server and click Retry or Cancel in the Error Message dialog box. This will not effect network-connected printers

Solution

To disable print notifications sent by the print server when a print job has been completed, there is an error, or a job has been deleted:

• Click Start/Settings/Printers.

• In the File menu, click "Server Properties."

• Select the "Advanced" tab and disable "Notify when Remote Documents are Printed".

• To allow the new settings to take effect, stop and restart the Spooler service from Control Panel/Services.
