What does it mean ?????

[Franck Y]

Hello
Thank you craig !
I read it 2 times more and now, I understand it !:-)
I only have win2000 and and XP client. But i have a network printer (Xerox),
and she is "writing" the same error.

So i will try tomorow to forces Xp/Win2k  to use the port = 445.

Thank you
Franck
