HI ,

Thanks for u r response..

i am using TCP/IP port in vista not the software.

Problem description:

1. Install the driver in Vista, connect it Printer Using TCP/IP port(windows
port not software)
2.Down Load it to Client Machine(XP).
3. after Downloading it in client , i am not able to recognize what port the
driver is connected.
4. if server is XP instead of vista then i am able Identify this is becuase,
in Xp when TCP/IP port is created it will cretae registry enrty With header
IP_ , But this will not happen in Vista.
5. so is there any API or some other way to know the connected port is
TCP/IP port(if we see ports tab in printer and goto some port in description
it shown as TCP/IP port , how windows is able to regnise this).
6. Please provide me the info.

Thanks & Regards,
koti
