Hello All,
I am having an issue with a print driver. Microstation V8 2004 08.05.02.70. This is a Bentley driver modified to work with a HP5550 laser printer. THe driver had been working fine until recently. After loading the driver through the printer dialog box, when you click the printer icon an error is displayed by the message center that says "Error Opening Print File \\engdat1\3rdProd5550". If I comment out the line in the driver <default_outFile/auto_overwrite = \\engdat1\3rdProd5550 I can create a .plt file without a problem. If I switch that line to send to a different printer(default_outFile/auto_overwrite = "\\engdat1\3rdCopyRoom_9000" ) it works fine so I know it has something to do with the name of the printer and not the path. I am adding screenshots of the driver and the windows printer test page so you can see that the path and printer name match. Does anyone see something that I am missing???
Confirm the printer share name is correct. Executing the following in a cmd window will list all shares on the remote computer:
net view engdat1
The left column will list share names.
