Service Pack 2

[overkill]

Hi,

I am new to this forum. I kind of looked over the forum and couldn't find an answer to my question. I hope I am not "beating a dead horse" but I was wandering if anywone know this.

After doing a SP2 upgrade, now when we print we get a bubble down by our clocks that give all of the printing information while its printing. This is really annoying to our users. Does anybody have a clue how to stop this?

Thanks in advance

Mike

After installation of Windows XP Service Pack 2, a balloon window is displayed every time a print job is sent to a networked printer informing the user that the job has been spooled succesfully. If you want wish to disable this option do the folowing:

Run registry editor and navigate to this key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Printers\Settings

Change the value with the following details:

Data Type: DWORD

Value Name: EnableBalloonNotificationsRemote

Value: 0

Stop and restart the spooler service for the change to take effect

Thanks alot.
