I’m a Mac person so I’m only superficially cognizant of where settings and prefs of various sorts are squirreled away under Windows. How the heck do you get the Pee Cee to quit informing you each time you print that the document you just printed was indeed sent to the printer?
Control Panel > Printers > File menu > Server Properties > Advanced tab…
There are two check boxes, one each for printer notifications for printer servers and local printers.
Always bugged me too, how ridiculous.
I can’t follow your directions. I can get as far as Start Menu -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Printers and Faxes, but there’s no File Menu. Am I looking in the right place?
I have Windows XP, Service pack 2, and have the taskbar set to “Classic Start Menu”, if that matters.
Found it. With the classic task bar setting, Start Menu -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Printers and Faxes is a dead end. Instead, select Start Menu -> Settings -> Printers and Faxes, which will open up a window, and from there File -> Server Properties … like ParentalAdvisory said.
“File” isn’t part of the “Printer & Faxes” screen. Not really, he means “File” from the toolbar once you’re in the Printers & Faxes screen.
Kind of like where you would find “File…” in the finder bar across the top of your apps in OS X, but in Windows, each windows has its own toolbar with “File”, “Edit”, etc.
Just wanted to let you know I was able to follow the instrux
Yes it works. Thanks.
Thank you for letting me fix a long-time annoyance of mine.
