A. By default, Win2K servers display printers on a Web page at http:///printers . To disable this Web-based display (and thus the Web Printing), perform the following steps:
Start a registry editor (e.g., regedit.exe).
Navigate to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREPoliciesMicrosoftWindows NTPrinters registry subkey.
From the Edit menu, select New, DWORD Value.
Enter the name DisableWebPrinting, then press Enter.
Double-click the new value, set it to 1, then click OK.
Exit the registry editor.
Restart the server for the change to take effect.
