6I am trying to use the Properties page in Network Neighborhood to configure the PSA, but the PSA seems to ignore some of my settings.

The PSA uses the printer configuration page on the Printer Properties window (which is displayed after right-clicking on a printer and then selecting Properties) for driver configuration changes and recognizes some other settings, such as security settings. However, the PSA does not recognize many of the settings if they are changed using these driver management tools.

●General tab

❍Comments text field - supported

❍Location text field - supported

❍Driver drop-down list- the driver can be changed if and only if the driver is an initialized driver; otherwise, the administrator will be prompted to change the driver through the PSA's web interface so that the driver can be initialized.

❍New Driver button - the driver can be uploaded to the PSA, but will not be associated with this printer until the administrator uses the PSA's web interface to change the driver so that it can be initialized.
