Default Hyperlink to Print Server


I need to hyperlink to print servers but I'm getting the "Cannot find server"
error. Is there a special way to format the link? Currently, I just have it
going to \\PSRVB\100B-CAN5020i so I figure it's the backslash that's messing
me up. Help?

How is this related to using FP? Suggest you try the Windows Server newsgroup.

In FP, I have a page listing all of our copiers with their print server and
location. The locations have hyperlinks that that floorplan pdf file. I
wanted to create a hyperlink to the print server address so they could add it
from my web page. This is a "no can do"?

Suggest you post the Windows Server Newsgroup or IIS newsgroup.

Why not simply display the print server addresses on the page and let them
"copy and paste" them from there? What would a hyperlink do that normally
displayed text wouldn't do? Instruct the users to "highlight to copy and
paste...".
