    Printing to a Print Server?
    « on: November 28, 2007, 11:37:11 AM »
    Hello all.

    I have been testing my print command here at home on my network and everything works fine.

    When I installed the application on the client machine the printers are not declared on the server itself, but rather handled thru a Print server. For some reason I cannot print to a printer thru the server even if I specify the Print server as in the following example, any suggestions?

    print /d:\\SRV-PRINTERS\PRN-ENCM MyFile.txt

    Try to authenticate for permissions first like using RUNAS etc, but ((( This is a security vulnerability having the credentials in a batch ))) If it must be in a batch, I'd complile it to an EXE for an extra layer of security, although still not very safe from determined individuals.
