Hi,

Every time someone prints I get 4 new information messages in the Event
Viewer, under System Log :

DATE | TIME | SOURCE | CATEGORY | EVENT | USER | COMPUTER
-------+---------+--------+----------+-------+------+------------
5/8/94 | 4:48:44 | Print | None | 17 | USER | VANEG3
5/8/94 | 4:48:45 | Print | None | 17 | USER | VANEG3
5/8/94 | 4:48:45 | Print | None | 10 | USER | VANEG3
5/8/94 | 4:48:45 | Print | None | 13 | USER | VANEG3

with descriptions (respectively) :

- Document 3, Notepad - (Untitled) owned by USER was set on HP-4.
- Document 3, Notepad - (Untitled) owned by USER was set on HP-4.
- Document 3, Notepad - (Untitled) owned by USER was printed on HP-4 via
port LPT1:. Size in bytes: 112; pages printed: 1
- Document 3, Notepad - (Untitled) owned by USER was deleted on HP-4.

How can I get rid of these messages ? They're filling up my log with
useless information.

- NO auditing has been set for the printer in the Printer Manager.
- NO object or file access has been set in the User Manager.
- This is a local printer.

Any ideas would be appreciated...


Thanks,

Socratis

1. Run REGEDT32.EXE.

2. Go to:


\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Providers

3. From the Edit menu, choose Add Value.

4. In the Value Name field of the Add Value dialog box, type
"EventLog"
(without the quotation marks).

5. In the Data Type box, select REG_DWORD.

6. In the Dword Editor dialog box, type a 0 (zero) in the Data box.

7. Choose the OK button.

8. Quit REGEDT32.EXE.

9. Restart the computer.

This only works if you have installed Service Pack 2.
