When users install a printer on a Windows workstation from the iPrint Printer List Web Page, they can choose to set the printer they are installing as the default printer by selecting the Set Printer as Default check box in the Printer Is Not Installed dialog box. When this option is selected, the printer is installed and set as the default printer. When it is not selected, the printer is installed and no change is made to the default printer.
You can customize the settings that users see when they install a printer:
Edit iprint.js, located in the following directory:
/var/opt/novell/iprint/htdocs/scripts
Modify the var defTypeGbl = setting to one of the following:
Setting |
Description |
---|---|
DEF_TYPE_OPTION_YES |
Displays the Set as Default check box and marks it as selected. |
DEF_TYPE_OPTION_NO |
Displays the Set as Default check box, but does not select it. |
DEF_TYPE_OPTION_NONE |
Hides the Set as Default check box. |
Save the file.
When the file is saved, the change is effective immediately.
