Printer Capture Problem

I have an NT4 Network with Windows 98 clients running a FOXPRO 2.6 shared application. 1 of the workstations has a printer connected directly to LPT1 set up as a shared printer for use on other workstations . Each workstation using the shared printer has a capture statement within the printer properties. The problem is that the capture statement is only retained untill the work stations are restarted. The statments can be viewed and are retained in the printer properties but it is necessary to "end capture" and reset the capture for each working day.

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Hi Tom,

It may be better to set this printer up on the server first. There is no need to move the printer, it can still be set up on the server from where it is.

Then capture it on the other pcs as if it was on the server.

If you need help with this let me know.

Paul
