Print legacy mode has been deprecated and no longer supported

[Dan Loring]

Getting the following error(below) on one of the 274 devices.  We do not use this device as a print spooler, but alot of print jobs pass threw to get to the print server at the central location, was something missed in the configuration?

Print legacy mode has been deprecated and no longer supported as of 4.2.x.  Please migrate to Print Accelerator mode

Dan,

If you are not using this device as a print server than you can disable the feature and that should clear the alarm.

wave-274(config)#no print-services enable

wave-274#sh print-services process

Warning: Legacy print services are deprecated and no longer supported in WAAS 4.2.x and later.

Please migrate to Windows Print Accelerator instead.

Print server is not running.

Print spooler is not running.

If at some point we needed to setup print services on this blade What would we need to do to migrate to the Windows Print Accelerator?  Is that a setting in the CM or a CLI command?

[Michael Korenbaum]

You can enable it via the CM or CLI.
