RESOLUTION
WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may
require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve
problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own
risk.
To resolve this problem, use either of the following methods:
- Download the latest version of JetAdmin. To do so, visit the following HP Web site:
-or-
- Follow these steps:
- Create LPR ports for all the JetDirect cards, open the printer
properties for each printer, and then move the printers to their respective LPR port instead of using the JetAdmin port.
- Uninstall JetAdmin, and then restart the server.
- Stop the Spooler Service, and then remove the JetAdmin port monitor from the following registry path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors
- Close the registry and the restart the server.
NOTE: When you create the LPR Port on the Ports Tab in the Printer properties, specify the IP address of the printer (not the IP address of the Windows print server). Otherwise, the print documents will not print. Instead, the print documents will constantly spool at the print server and cause the print server to timeout.
HP no longer supports JetDirect. They now use SDI (Simple Device Installation) to install network printers. For more information, visit one of the following HP Web sites:
