@Seb1780 - Hi any chance you could post a list of services that were disabled as I've also been seeing this problem? Thanks Rob

From what you have said the way it turns off... I would suspect the lamp might need replacing. Might be worth taking it out and seeing if its gone pop.

Policy Central Business & Education Internet Monitoring software - Policy Central Enterprise but I do know it does't do the classroom management aspect. So you would need a additional app such as AB Tutor to cover that base.

Sun and blue sky in South Leicestershire

Some management tools will do that (and more again) BCX Network Tools for example.

Started using this one Recyclable IT LTD

What about using the schtasks in the cmd, ok you might have a very big file to cover all your computers on your network: schtasks /create /S /U domain\username /P password /sc DAILY /tn SystemShutdown /tr "%systemroot%\system32\shutdown.exe -s -t 10 -f" /ru System /mo 1 /st 20:00:00 This will (should) set up a task on the computer to run as SYSTEM to turn the PC off at 8pm Or if you can run the it in a logon script use: schtasks /create /sc DAILY /tn SystemShutdown /tr "%systemroot%\system32\shutdown.exe -s -t 10 -f" /ru System /mo 1 /st 20:00:00 But the user who logs on will need to be able to set up a scheduled task.

Nice

Good one, keep me smiling all day that will.

75% Here.. . Just a few silly mistakes.

Hi all Thanks for your comments, I have been to the head of IT and he likes the look of the Canon i-Sensys LBP7750cdn. So it looks like the plan is now to get the canon install it in his room and remove the other colour printers. I keep them just if people start making sounds about the missing printers. He doesn't mind people coming into his room to print, but it might encourage students to get the teachers to have the job printed on the colour copier. At our next all staff meeting, and curriculum leaders he is going to tell them that the days of free staff top ups are over and all new toners are paid for by a central pot and departments are expected to pay for top ups for their staff. Thanks again Rob

Printers are installed on the Print Server and shared, stations add the printer when students and staff login. A black and white printer is also installed in the room.

We have PCounter the problem is staff have always got "free top ups" and they just print class sets (30 print outs) of 2 to 5 page documents.

Hi all Hope this is the right place for this & my apologises if I am repeating. At my school we currently have colour printers in all three of our ICT rooms, but now we're getting fed up with the cost of the toners and the speed in which they are used up. So the plan is to only have black and white in two of the ICT rooms and the colour printer is in the Head of IT room. Now at present his room has a HP Colour LaserJet 2606dtn, which is not bad until 30 PCs send a 20MB Publisher, Powerpoint or some other large graphic file then we can be waiting 30 minutes for the printer to start. So he would like a new colour printer with the following: 1.Must cost no more than £500.00 2.Must have Network capabilities 3.Must have a duplex unit 4.Must be cheap to re toner and maintain 5.Must be fast and deal with what ever the student send to it in a reasonable time (I know, I am asking for a lot) Some of the ones I have looked at already are: Epson AcuLaser C2800DN Epson AcuLaser C1100DN (can't seem to find this one on the net, but I believe such a device does exist) Samsung CLP-620DN Is anyone using any of these, are you happy with the result? Can any one suggest a good colour printer, which can adhere to the following: Must cost no more than £500.00 Must have Network capabilities Must have a duplex unit. Must be cheap to re toner and maintain Must be fast and deal with what ever the student send to it in a reasonable time Thanks in advance Rob

Hi all I have had a look round and can't find the answer I am looking for, but I apologies if I have put this in the wrong place, or it’s already been discussed in another thread. We use EMBC email, and a few staff (mainly our admin & SLT) uses Outlook Express, to download their emails. One of our VPs has got a damaged inbox.dbx file, so all her emails have vanished from the inbox. I have revered her mail box to how it was when Thursday's backup was done (we don't do a Friday, don't know why...). Does any one know a way to recover the emails within the dbx file, with out parting with any money? Thank Rob
