Client printer naming customization
FH Web Edition installs a printer on the host for each printer configured on the client machine. These printers are called proxy printers and are the printers seen by users when printing through FH Web Edition. Since multiple users connect to a FH Web Edition server, these printers must be filtered so that users see only their own printers. This requires that each printer be assigned a unique identifier.
Through the registry, administrators can specify the format of these proxy printer names and include information such as the user’s name, the client computer’s IP address, and the client machine name.
Administrators can choose from the following tokens to create a suffix to the printer string name.
| Token | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
|
|
User name |
|
|
|
Client IP address |
|
|
|
Client's unique ID (GUID) |
|
|
|
Client machine name |
|
|
|
FH Web Edition session ID |
