Kbase P99722: Printing to Wyse WinTerm using DOS SILENT COPY sends second copy to random printer

Status: Unverified

FACT(s) (Environment):

Progress 8.3E
Citrix MetaFrame (for Windows 2000 Terminal Server)

SYMPTOM(s):

Using Wyse WinTerm thin client terminals

Each Wyse terminal has a printer attached to LPT1

Application sends a report to the local printer using DOS SILENT COPY <SomeFileName> LPT1 statement

Report is properly sent to local printer

A second copy of the report is sent to a random printer

CAUSE:

The exact cause is unknown at the time of this writing

FIX:

This is a non-Progress issue. Copying the report to the printer using the COPY command via the DOS SILENT statement is exactly the same as sitting at an Operating System command prompt (i.e. C:>) and manually executing the command so the extra copy of the report which goes to a random printer is not caused by Progress. Please contact either Wyse or Citrix technical support.
