More info?)
Vera,
FYI problem solved , the driver for the Epson printer can be a
Generic/text driver if you don't need the special features ,
which I don't need.
The naming problem to get rid of everyting behind the (
"HP6540 deskjet (from XP1) at session 1"
will be done perfectly with the script on website
http://terminal.servebeer.com/php/renameprinter.php
The only thing is that the user should be member of the power users group.
Regards
Jac
