Hi List
Stupid question - is it possible to do a Print Direct (like from a subsystem job) from a Linux batch server to a windows print server based network printer?
I can create Reports on my linux batch servers, view and print them. No problem. I can assign myself a printer with a windows host and do Print Direct to a windows printer. If I create a new Linux printer in JDE 9.0, I don't see a way to associate that printer with a UNC for a network printer (all of our network printers are hung off of windows print servers).
I see only two solutions:
Direct my jobs that require Print Direct to a windows batch server.
- OR -
Create a linux based batch server that duplicates my windows environment and direct all of the print direct jobs through that server. (not a road that I want to travel down)
Am I missing something here?
Environment - 9.0, Oracle database on Exadata Database Machine, six linux Weblogic servers, six linux batch servers, one windows batch server.
