Hi,

 

This particular that you are trying to apply is not possible. Let me tell

you why is it so. In any application you see the menu bars, these menus and

linked with a particular dll file and we will not be able to disable to in

the application level. Same way in the printer properties dialogue box is

also linked to such a dll which also intiates other options in the print

command so if play with that dll it effect the whole printing and be a worse

case.

 

i hope i have answered your question please let me know if you have any

question pertaining to this

Hi Krish,

 

Thanks for the answer,

 

I'd like to explain the need and way.

 

users are working and connecting to a TS2003 environment. most users need to

select a printer from the list (according the print job) during work. my

problem is a security (and desterbing) issue. Some of these printers have

special settings and even access the files on the server (like several pdf

and/or images printers)

 

I want my users to be able to select a printer using the dialog box but

denay access to the properties of these printers (unless they have the right

permissions).

 

Granting these users the options to change settings in the printers

properties is a BIG problem (some of them are playing with these setting and

I have to restore them) and consumes uneeded tech calls.

 

Again, thanks for your answer,
