 +^ Author | [[ goldfndr@gmail.com | Richard Finegold ]] |
 +^ Compatibility | Xymon/Hobbit/Big Brother |

 +===== Description =====
 +This lists TCP/IP-connected printers on a print server, their drivers (including versions), their pingability, print jobs, and port setups. The information gathered is quite lengthy, enough that I found a memory leak in BBWin 0.12.
 +
 +===== Installation =====
 +=== Client side ===
 +  * Confirm that the client is actually being used as a print server. On Windows XP, one would check by opening Printers, File/Server Properties, and on the Ports tab, check that IP_* ports (typically described as "Standard TCP/IP Port") are in use.
 +  * Copy listprn.vbs (below) to your BBWin's ''ext'' folder.
 +  * Customize the IPpattern and MYDOMAIN values to match your network's configuration.
 +  * Optionally try running it at the command line (cscript listprn.vbs), confirm it displays output and writes a listprn file.
 +  * Edit your BBWin's ''etc/bbwin.cfg'' file:
 +    * Add a line in the ''externals'' section:<code xml>
 + <load value="cscript.exe ..\ext\listprn.vbs" />
 +</code>
 +    * If the externals agent was disabled in the ''bbwin'' section (e.g. commented out or deleted), enable:<code xml>
 +        <load name="externals" value="externals.dll" />
 +</code>
 +
 +=== Server side ===
 +Optionally add a composite script that makes a report of all printers. prntx.sh depends on prnt.sh; run something like the following:<code bash>prnt.sh > $BBWWW/prnt.html; prntx.sh</code>
 +== prnt.sh ==
 +If the listing isn't long enough to warrant stand-alone versions of Combined/Print-Jobs/Ports, edit out the prnt-____.html references at the top.

 +
 +===== Known  Bugs and Issues =====
 +  * Figure out what credentials are required to remotely retrieve a DHCP server's reservation list.
 +  * Determine why a WMI query for Win32_Printer sometimes gets stuck.
 +
 +===== To Do =====
 +  * Confirm that changing td/th to tabs actually does produce readable (non-HTML) output.
 +  * Figure out why the server sometimes claims a printer has gone offline when it hasn't, and won't come back online unless the Spooler service is restarted. This script will consider a printer in this situation (offline but pingable) as having a red status, with a need to restart the Print Spooler service likely.
 +  * Perhaps find more methods that printer driver creators use to embed the version numbers in their drivers.
