Environment

Situation

iPrint 32-bit Client for Windows 7 link is missing.
iPrint 64-bit Client for Windows 7 link is missing.

Resolution

Do the following to resolve the issue:
  1. Copy the /srv/www/novell/welcome-novell/config/iprint.js file from an OES2 SP2 server to the Novell NetWare 6.5 server into the following locations:
    NetWare Server Locations:
    sys:\adminsrv\welcome-novell\links\
    sys:\adminsrv\welcome-novell\config\
  2. Restart Apache on the NetWare server.
    #ap2webdn
    #ap2webup
  3. Accessing the clientsoft.html page should now show Windows 7 iPrint client download links.

Additional Information

Cause:  The "Available Downloads" page for iPrint has not been updated on NetWare to include the Windows 7 iPrint links.  By copying over the iprint.js file, the links are updated and appear as expected.
