Vista x64 TCP/IP Printing Issues
Greetings, I have been searching for some time for an answer for this issue but i have not yet been able to find a fix. PROBLEM: I cannot add a TCP/IP Printer attached to my network. System Information: Gateway 6860 Laptop Windows Vista Home Premium x64 1.83 GhZ Core Duo2 4 GB Ram THINGS I HAVE DONE: 1) Tried intalling via add new printer - network printer - Printer not listed - Add TCP/IP Printer - typed in printer ip - I get the following: "Error Loading TCP MIB Library" - "Cannot Load Wizard pages for Standard TCP/IP Port" 2) Checked the REGISTRY ENTRY according to some of the other solutions that i have read and everthing is in place: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Print\Monitor\ Add key Standard TCP/IP Port Add String Value; value name=Driver; value data=tcpmon.dll under Standard TCP/IP Port Add Key Ports Add three Dwords in Ports LprAckTimeout value data= 180 StatusUpdateEnabled value data= 1 StatusUpdateInterval value data= 10 stop and start spooler 3)Checked on the files that are used for TCP/IP Ports and they are all the \windows\system32 tcpmon.dll tcpmib.dll tcpmonui.dll and i don't have any of the files that have been references in the %systemroot% folder that would cause conflicts: "This behavior may occur if a third-party version of the Wsnmp32.dll, Ntprint.dll, Tcpmib.dll, Mgmtapi.dll, or Snmpapi.dll file has been copied to the %SystemRoot% folder." 4) Installed the same network printer on three other machines in my office (Windows Vista Home Premium, MacOS X Leapord & Windows 7 Home) So i know that the printer is accessible, in fact i can connect to the printers UI via typing the ip address in my browser... 5) i have performed "in cmd" scannow sfc/ command and that didn't fix anything either as some other suggestions have implied. Im kind of lost for words on what to do next without re-intalling vista... any suggestions? -Thanks Chris -- conagan |

add the port using the vbs script prnport.vbs
\system32\printing_admin_scripts\en-us\prnport.vbs cscript prnport.vbs -a -h 1.1.1.1 -r PORTNAME If it does not auto configure the settings your device supports, supply the settings to the command line (you would need to verify these from the network card documentation) use "printui /ip" from command line to launch the Network Add Printer wizard and select the port from the list The error you describe sounds like one of the core network binaries was replaced. sfc /scannow should have fixed that. -- Alan Morris Windows Printing Team Search the Microsoft Knowledge Base he http://support.microsoft.com/search/?adv=1 This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

I am not as computer savvy as you it seems...could you please give me a walk
through on how to do this exactly because I have the same problem but your answer is like a foreign language to me. LOL Please help!

I'll assume the port creation through scripting is the portion of foreign
origin. You will need a network configuration page printed from your device. Each device is different so you will need to read the manual if you do not know how to do this. Locate the hostname or IP for the network card. I'd use the hostname since this will also get to the device when the IP address changes. open an elevated command prompt Start /Accessories /Command Prompt right click, Run as administrator this should open in c:\windows\system32. Then navigate to printing_admin_scripts\en-us at the prompt type cd printing_admin_scripts\en-us at the prompt type cscript prnport.vbs -a -h YOURHOSTNAME -r HOSTNAME If you have a network card included in tcpmon.ini the port configuration is read from this file. If the port is not autoconfiged and fails use raw and 9100 (this is the default for HP and Lexmark). cscript prnport.vbs -a -h YOURHOSTNAME -r HOSTNAME -o raw -n 9100 once the port is created launch the network Add Printer wizard in the same command windows type printui /ip use the port you just created. -- Alan Morris Windows Printing Team Search the Microsoft Knowledge Base he http://support.microsoft.com/search/?adv=1 This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
