Launch Application Add Printer[s] to Group Refer to "Generating Reports" in Chapter 5 for more information on generating reports. Selecting this menu option launches the active management application of the selected printer. Applications are configured and assigned to individual printers via the Printer Properties window. Up to three management application paths can be defined via the Printer Properties window. However, only the active management application is launched (i.e., the application that appears in the Printer Management Application field of the Printer Properties window). When a printer is discovered PrinterMap attempts filling in one or more application paths depending on the printer's manufacturer (vendor) and capabilities. The discover process first determines whether the printer has a built in HTTP server. If it does, PrinterMap sets the active management application path to "HTTP://" (provided that the printer's IP address is known). Next, the process discovers whether a default management application is configured for the printer's vendor. If so, PrinterMap adds the appropriate management application path to the printer's management applications list (if the printer is not HTTP enabled or the printer's IP address is not available then this path becomes the printer's active management application). If the selected printer lacks an application path specified in its Properties window the Launch Application menu item is grayed out. NOTE: If the active application is a vendor specific management application (such as HP's JetAdmin), once the application comes up it may be necessary to re-select the target printer. Whenever possible PrinterMap launches the management application with focus on the selected printer. PrinterMap can launch CentreWare DP with focus on the selected printer if PrinterMap knows the printer's IPX address. If not, select CentreWare's IP option and find the printer. Selecting this menu option adds the current selected printer or printers to an existing group. The selected printer is copied to an existing group by highlighting the printer or printers and selecting this menu item which prompts for a group name. PrinterMap User Guide 53

Refer to “Generating Reports” in Chapter 5 for more information on generating

.
Selecting this menu option launches the active management application of the
selected printer. Applications are configured and assigned to individual printers
via the Printer Properties window. Up to three management application paths can
be defined via the Printer Properties window. However, only the active
management application is launched (i.e., the application that appears in the
Printer Management Application field of the Printer Properties window).
When a printer is discovered PrinterMap attempts filling in one or more
application paths depending on the printer’s manufacturer (vendor) and
capabilities. The discover process first determines whether the printer has a built
in HTTP server. If it does, PrinterMap sets the active management application
path to “HTTP://<ip_address>” (provided that the printer’s IP address is known).
Next, the process discovers whether a default management application is
configured for the printer’s vendor. If so, PrinterMap adds the appropriate
management application path to the printer’s management applications list (if the
printer is not HTTP enabled or the printer’s IP address is not available then this
path becomes the printer’s active management application).
If the selected printer lacks an application path specified in its Properties window
the Launch Application menu item is grayed out.
NOTE:
If the active application is a vendor specific management application
(such as HP’s JetAdmin), once the application comes up it may be
necessary to re-select the target printer. Whenever possible PrinterMap
launches the management application with focus on the selected printer.
PrinterMap can launch CentreWare DP with focus on the selected
printer if PrinterMap knows the printer’s IPX address. If not, select
CentreWare’s IP option and find the printer.
Selecting this menu option adds the current selected printer or printers to an
existing group.
The selected printer is copied to an existing group by highlighting the printer or
printers and selecting this menu item which prompts for a group name.
