    Fast First Page Printer

    OK...for anyone who's interested... The OKI B430 arrived. The first thing I did was extend the sleep time to 240 minutes....then I found an option to turn off power save mode so I turned it off too. Then I did my first Windows Test Page print. As expected it took about 16.5 seconds. Within a...

    Fast First Page Printer

    Hi again, Just for the record, I've tested the first-page-out speed of an HP Laserjet 1018 via USB today and from warm, it takes 10 seconds for a Windows test page. I've also ordered an OKI B430dn today, so I'll let you know how that performs when it arrives. In the mean time, if anyone can...

    Fast First Page Printer

    WOW Guys! This is exactly why I love the technical community! Thanks for all your help. I (finally) managed to get through to someone technical at OKI, who ran through a few tests for me while I was on the phone. He was using an OKI B440 because he didn't have a B430 on his test bench but he...

    Fast First Page Printer

    Thanks for the feedback guys. The application is a Windows application which runs under Vista. The content is only A5 (half A4) mono and (for speed) only contains text...although I could, and would probably like to include graphics if the printer I get can print it at an acceptable speed. The...

    Fast First Page Printer

    Hi, I have a specific application which prints a single page document periodically for customers. It's essential that I don't want to keep customers hanging around and I really want to buy a fast laser printer for the job. The trouble is that in-between printing the document, the printer will...

    Exchange ActiveSync with Mobile Device

    Hi My client is introducing new cell phones incorporating Windows Mobile to the organisation and I'm having trouble "ActiveSync"ing the mail to the Exchange Server with the first "trial" device. Every 3-5 minutes the Exchange SBS 2003 Server is reporting an Error in the Event log with Event ID...

    Server "Beep Beep", "Beep Beep" AFTER logon

    Hi, This is a weird one. I came in to work this morning and the our Win2K3 server had installed updates overnight and re-booted itself. I logged on to the server, and as soon as the screen changed to display system clock in the tray and the desktop icons, the machine started doing a double beep...

    Messages stuck in Exchange 2003 Mailbox Store

    Just as some final closure for anyone else who might come across this in future, I DID uncheck the "Allow" for relaying and it all still worked. Thanks again, Richard.

    Messages stuck in Exchange 2003 Mailbox Store

    FIXED IT!!!! It was the bounce back message that got me thinking. I looked under "Servers" in System Manager, selected my server, went don to "Protocols", selected "SMTP" and got the properties on my "Default SMTP Virtual Server". On the "Access" tab, I clicked the "Authentication" button...

    Messages stuck in Exchange 2003 Mailbox Store

    Hi Guys, Many thanks for continuing to offer your advice. Under "Recipient Policies", I have 1 entry: "Default Policy"; Priority "Lowest". Getting the properties on this reveals 3 tabs: "General", "E-Mail Addresses (Policy)" and "Details". On the "General" tab, under "Filter Rules" it says...

    Messages stuck in Exchange 2003 Mailbox Store

    Hi mofusjtf, Correct. Internal mail's working fine. If I set up a new user, send 1 message from the outside and 1 from an internal account, the Mailbox Store for that user shows 2 messages are present, but only the 1 sent internally appears in the recipient's inbox. This is the case for both...

    Thanks again for replying guys. I ran through the wizard without any problems. Unfortunately it hasn't made the slightest difference. Users are still not receiving any e-mail from the outside world. I'm really out of ideas here. What else can I try? Many thanks in advance, Richard.

    I configured Exchange manually. As I did with the all the users through AD Users and Computers. This is the way that I've always done it before on other servers...So tell me about the Exchange setup wizard. Where do I find it? Server Management console? Which option? If I run it now will that...

    Messages stuck in Exchange 2003 Mailbox Store

    Hi Dave, Thanks for responding. Correct. In the mailbox store in System Manager there's a count of the messages there against each user's mailbox. If I send a message to a mailbox, the count increments. If I set up a new user and send 1 test message from the outside, the count goes to 1, but...

    Messages stuck in Exchange 2003 Mailbox Store

    Please Help! I have a new Windows 2003 SBS Server set up and working well...except for e-mail! Users can connect to mailbox using Outlook or OWA and send messages without any problems. Unfortunately, no users are receiving any messages in either Outlook or OWA. All inboxes are empty. I have...
