Most people print to a single printer and own a single printer so I can't see much use for this program.

I have a Desktop computer, the operating system is Windows XP Pro, with a direct connection to an HP LaserJet 1320 printer. I primarily use this computer for storage of files. My primary computer is a Lenovo IdeaPad 110 Laptop, the operating system is Windows 10 Home. While I can connect my Laptop to the Desktop by WiFi I cannot connect my Laptop to the printer. So, to print documents that are on my Laptop I first have to send the documents to the Desktop and print from there. Will the O&K Print Router 3.2.3 allow me to connect the Laptop, by WiFi, to the printer so that I may print from my Laptop?

John P. Cummins, It can be massaged into doing that but it's not straightforwared and the routing function is part of the GUI not part of the driver so the installed GUI program has to be running in a logged in account on the Desktop acting as windows network shared printer server. I'd try and share your original printer directly first though. Most can be shared. The main issue will be organising valid drivers for the client machine to print to the shared printer with (which is the manual massaging this needs in order to work)

When I delved into the the O&K Print Router "Printer" | "Printing Preferences" | "Avanced" | Colour Printing Mode: defaults to only "256 Color (HalfToned)"

It can be adjusted to "True Color (24bpp)" so at least the printers it's routing the data to has a chance at printing decent photos and other images! Who want's to print everything as if it was coming from a 256 colour GIF file?

OK, so was that yes or no? unless the answer requires the exchange of private data it would be much more efficient to answer comments querying capabilities here in the comments section so others with same question can get the answer too without having to post a me too comment or ask the question again and again until someone answers openly!

Looks an interesting tool but is let down by the lack of in program documentation on the syntax and keywords of the scripting language it can use. There is a page on their website with some information that should be made accessible by a link on the Custom Scripts tab in my opinion or a link to a local copy of that page. https://www.prnwatch.com/articles/user-scripts-for-ok-print-router/ three very short sample scripts are included in the installation folders "Samples" folder but you would not know unless you did your own investigation like I did. Should also be a browse option to always load a specific .sha script file it startup or load a different one if needs change. The Save button operation is a little moot since pressing OK to just dismiss the window forces a Save to overwrite the default C:\ProgramData\O&K Software\O&K Print Router\O&K Print Router.cha file with the current custom script tab contents and makes it persistent at next boot whether you wanted just for this session or not!

And I get a "This license is not valid for a Terminal Server enviroment." notice in the About menu. So some issue with using the program via remote desktop! how odd! So the license is not quite "unlimited"

TK, You can use this license via RDP on Windows workstation editions - Win7/8/10. The limitation is for Windows Server only.

Reply   |   Comment by OK  –  2 years ago  –  Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+1)

OK, I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium patched to permit remote desktop to work so it is a workstation edition. I have had to patch the first two unicode characters from the watermark string in the GUI executable to stop it watermarking the printed PDF files etc.

ALSO and more importantly!!!! You have specified to giveaway team that the system requirements DO SPECIFY server editions of Windows too!!!!

"System Requirements:

Windows XP/ Vista/ 7/ 8/ 10; Windows Server 2003/ 2008/ 2012/ 2016/ 2019;"

Which is why I felt justified patching out your watermark on my Worksatation installation.

Someone in the United States could have used that program very well!
