    Hey,

    I’m trying to add a network printer (HP LaserJet P2015dn) for a win7 (x32) client on my FOG 1.2 server.
    But, i can’t see the inf field … (like this [url]http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Managing_FOG#Adding_New_Printers[/url]).

    After some research, the 0.32 fog version has this field but not the 1.x version of FOG.

    I add the printer with these informations :
    [QUOTE]Printer Alias : HP LaserJet P2015 PCL6

    Printer Port IP_xx.yy.zz.xx

    Printer Model : HP LaserJet P2015 PCL6

    Printer IP : 1x.xx.xx.xx

    [/QUOTE]

    In the fog log client, i can see :
    [QUOTE]

    [/QUOTE]

    I can’t see any printer on the client (same resultat with a reboot of client)

    I tried another way :

    • install the printer as a local printer on the windows 7 client

    • delete the printer (but keep drivers)

    • reboot

    • same problem ; same fog log, no printer on the windows 7 client.

    What’s wrong ?

    My stuff :
    Server :
    FOG Version : Running Version 1.5.9
    OS : Debian GNU/Linux 10
    FOG Client Version : 0.12
    Specifications :
    > All images are on a Synology NAS storage : mounted with NAS_ip:/images
    > French user :)

        I found the solution … but it’s strange.
        Good parameters into the printer edit section :
        [CODE]Printer Alias : HP LaserJet P2015 PCL6
        Printer Port IP_xx.yy.zz.xx
        Printer Model : HP LaserJet P2015 PCL6
        Printer Type : C:\Windows\inf\ntprint.inf
        Printer IP : 1x.xx.xx.xx[/CODE]

        I don’t understand why i need to put the inf path into the Printer Type field but, with this parameter, it’s seem to work …

        My stuff :
        Server :
        FOG Version : Running Version 1.5.9
        OS : Debian GNU/Linux 10
        FOG Client Version : 0.12

          Because it has no idea where to look for the file?

          Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

          Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

          Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG
