Papercut print monitoring.

[maniac]

I've been trialing this system in our school just monitoring for now, and I'm very impressed with it. I decided to roll out local monitoring to some workstations today by installing the client program on the machine to feed data back to the central monitoring station. The problem is this picks up printers from workstations I don't need or want to monitor such as primo PDF and document imaging.

 

I know you can delete these in papercut, but as soon as the workstation is restarted, they re-appear in the monitoring application. Does anyone who uses this program know if there's a way of setting it to not capture these printers, as they're really clogging up the list, and making reports unnecessarily long.

 

Many thanks for your help,

 

Mike.

Have you got 'Automatically search for shares and printers' enabled?

 

My Computer -> Tools -> Folder Options -> View

 

and uncheck the option. You'll also need to clear any automatically added printers from your printers folder.
