OK I ran the Printer Manager Helper and do not see my printer listed here at all. But I do not get a pop up with any errors either.

RE: Printer Deploymentposted in FOG Problems
It does say that the “JH Lab” printer was installed but I do not see it in the printer control panel.

Printer Deploymentposted in FOG Problems
Hi All,
I’m working on integrating FOG printer management into our FOG scheme here. So far what I have done is download the handy FOG Printer Manager Helper tool to determine exact settings for printer. That works very well. Thanks @Wayne-Workman! I have successfully created a printer in FOG. Next I created a script to push printer drivers to hosts in a snapin. This works successfully. Finally, I add the said printer to each host in my group. I set the management level for the host to FOG managed. Everything appears to be normal there. No errors on the GUI. But when I go to the host and check to see what printers it has installed, I don’t find any printers.
Which service does FOG use to push printers?
Where could I find a log file for printer deployment?
Any advice is appreciated.
Cheers,
Joe

RE: Show Saved Group\Snappin\AD InfRunning Version 8343 SVN Revision: 5799oposted in Feature Request
I agree in that situation it probably would be best to keep it the way it is. My situation is a little different. Most of my groups are much smaller, in comparison, with similar hardware/software setups on every machine in the group.
I organize my groups based on room/lab in the school, every room has similar hardware ect. So it’s much different, it sounds. I’d just like to see a central location where I could see what settings are on larger groups of computers without having to go into each host to check it. Even if it were on a separate settings page. That’s all.
I just ran into an issue this morning where I’m adding printers to a group. I navigate to the group, click on printers, select printer for group, click add printer, click update and then all of my selections disappear. You have no idea whether your changes were ever applied to the group. To me it would be nice to see the printer check box remain checked after update is selected, and maybe the update button grayed out. Something simple to let the user know that things have actually been applied without having to go into each host.
Cheers,
Joe

RE: Storage Group Activity - Inconsistenciesposted in General
I tried doing the hard refresh and I get the same result. I get the same thing whether I use chrome or firefox.
-
RE: Show Saved Group\Snappin\AD InfRunning Version 8343 SVN Revision: 5799oposted in Feature Request
Yes I do see that most things do stay now after update button is pressed. Thanks!
It would be really nice to see some indication that a product key has been entered for the group. Just like how the password is displayed now for AD.
On Add Snappins it would be nice to see the check box checked or unchecked depending on whether the snappin is set to be deployed or not.
Hope that helps.
Thanks again!
Cheers!

RE: Show Saved Group\Snappin\AD InfRunning Version 8343 SVN Revision: 5799oposted in Feature Request
So I updated to current and am still getting this. I did check the AD settings and it does show up there now. So that looks resolved. The Group Product Key would be nice to see. I don’t care about the encrypted stuff. I just like to be able to check to make sure I remembered to set everything.
It may also be nice to have a repository within FOG for licence keys. Or to be able to see which machines are using which keys in a report. Just a thought. Not hugely critical but may be handy.
Thanks Tom!

RE: Storage Group Activity - Inconsistenciesposted in General
Well, it’s more in the storage node usage and less in group activity. I can post a new topic for it. That was my fault. Their is a screenshot in this topic further down. It still looks identical to that.

Show Saved Group\Snappin\AD InfRunning Version 8343 SVN Revision: 5799oposted in Feature Request
First off I’m running FOG Trunk Running Version 8343 SVN Revision: 5799. I need to update to current but I haven’t done so yet this week.
Anyow…
One pet peeve of mine is not being able to see my changes to each group. An example of this would be when you first open your group up (general menu) no changes show up in group description, group product key, group kernel, group kernel arguments, ect.
This also goes for showing which snapin is active. Why not have one menu item that says snappins and show which ones are active and allow the user to deactivate\add\remove them there? Just a thought.
Additionally, the info for Active Directory is not shown. I understand why this is true but it would be nice to at least see something indicating which account is being used to add computers to the domain and also show the domain name.
I enter all my stuff into FOG then hope and pray it was entered correctly and is going to work. I’m the type that likes to go back and double and triple check things before I push the images out. I can’t really do that here since I can’t see my changes.
Just a few things I’ve noticed.
I really really do love FOG though. I’m hooked.
Thanks!!
Cheers,

Xerox Printer Deployment W/ Fog Trunkposted in FOG Problems
Hi all,
I’d like to start utilizing FOG for printer management in a couple labs. Does anyone have any experience with Xerox printers and FOG? The drivers we use are the Global print drivers. We primarily have WorkCentre 6655i’s. Any advice is helpful. I do have the new client
(ver. 0.11.2) installed on all of our PCs in district.I’ve read the generic wiki on the website and it didn’t help much. Any direction is very much appreciated. Thanks!!
Cheers,
