note 40335 added to ref.com

Just a note to those wanting to use COM to interface to printers under Windows 2000/XP. If it doesn't work or seems to hang, try changing the logon identity under which the Apache (assuming you're using Apache) service is running from the System account to another account. By default most services will install to run under the System account and although the System account has total authority on the computer it is running on, it has no authority outside of that realm as I understand it. Apparently accessing printers is considered "outside the realm". I used this technique to interface a Dymo thermal label printer to my server and it works now. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.com.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+40335 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+40335&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+40335&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
