I have a major malfunction going on in 1/3 of my installed base. All PC's are suposedly identical in setup/configuration. All done by outside contractor so it's tough now.

200+ stores that have 2 workstations. A&B. In the sales process the user must print 2 different documents, off of identical Oki Microline 320's. Invoice must go through printer on A and Work Order must go to printer B. < pre printed stock >

At a few stores user gets an error message that there is a print driver error. This error shows up when trying to print to the NON Local printer. Always, at these few stores.

I can print a test page to the other printer, and I can print a word pad to that printer, but not a VFP? I have forced a PROMPT to pick the printer and both documents can print local, so the driver is local on the printer and working fine.

The setup of the networked printer is screwy to my normal setup. We define a printer for share on one pc, then go to the other and add that printer as a local printer instead of a networked print server. this is how they are done at all locations it's only a few that are screwy.

Any ideas?
