Printer Renaming

Post by John - Tracker Supp »

To rename the PDF-XChange or TIFF-XChange print drivers :

Using the silent install as outlined in the Help file this new switch has now been added (will be documented in the next release - build 3.5092)

/PName= (Optional) printer renaming.
Sets the PDF-XChange printer name as required - please note that the 1st 12 characters are reserved - including the space after "PDF-XChange " the default option without this entry is currently "PDF-XChange 3.0'
i.e. : /PName:"PDF-XChange for my application"
Please note that the string content must begin and end with double quote marks (")

To rename manually from the Windows Control Panel - Printers & Faxes list, follow the naming rules detailed above - otherwise the printer either is not renamed or if it is - usage issues will occur.
If posting files to this forum - you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded - thank you.

Best regards
