Name: 
Default Printer Alert Starting Windows Server 

Description: 
Big Business for WinNT Server will generate an alert if there is not a default printer selected for the current WinNT User. This may require responding to the Alert each and every time the BB Server is launched.

This Alert may also impede any attempt at autostarting Big Business:
• Using Start items (in the Start Menu)
• WinNT's Schedule Service and "AT" Command (3302) 

Status: 
Complete

Solution: 
To prevent the alert, simply create a default printer (even if no printer is connected).
1. Start Menu> Settings> Printers
2. Double-click Add A Printer and follow the Wizard to create a printer
If you do not have an actual printer available, create a dummy printer as a Local Printer connected on LPT1.
