Chapter 1: Introduction

Profile Editor is an administrative tool that supplements the functionality of Printer
Monitor. Printer Monitor allows users to monitor printing activities for networked
Konica 7060 printers. For details, see the Printer Monitor User’s Guide.

With Profile Editor, you can:

• configure device discovery parameters for Printer Monitor (see Chapter 4)

• configure device identification settings such as name and location (see Chapter 5)

Installed Printers

In the context of Profile Editor, an installed printer is one that you can print to from your
computer. The Profile Editor finds installed, networked printers that are being printed to
via IP or IPX as follows:

• NT - LPD port local or LPD port remote with a share

• 95/98 - LPD port remote with a share on a Win NT Server or Win NT

Workstation

• IPX - If multiple printers are attached to a queue only the first print server

attached to the queue is shown

In discovering installed printers on Win 95/98 that are connected to a LPD remote share
on Win NT an additional step must be taken. This step is only required for Win 95/98
clients and not for Win NT clients. After the time the printer is installed and shared on
the Win NT machine the administrator is required to enter the IP address of the printer in
the comment field for the driver. This comment field is accessible via the General page
of the Properties dialog for the printer driver. The IP address that is entered in the
comment field must be the same IP address that was entered for the LPR port at the time
the printer was installed. This step must be executed before any Win 95/98 printers are
connected to this share. If this step is not completed before the printer is installed on the
Win 95/98 client, it will not be visible to the Port Monitor executing on that Win 95/98
client. In this case the user must enter the IP address on the Win NT machine where the
printer share exists and re-install the driver on the Win 95/98 client.

Requirements

Profile Editor has no hardware or software requirements beyond those for Printer
Monitor. The requirements are:

• Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT 4.0, or a more recent compatible version

• Processor as required by the operating system

• RAM as required by the operating system

• 10 Mb of available hard disk space

• Network:
