Printing from the Wizard (HP MobilePrinting?)

Hi there!
For quite a while now I'm searching for an app making it possible to print from the Qtek, via LAN, WLAN, IR, no matter (well, nearly)...
all I found was the HP MobilePrinting solution, which (at least on my device) doesn't work (installed on the machine as well as on the storage card). The app always complains that the hpprintcenter seems not to be certified or a component is missing... well.
The only other app I found was Vanguard Printing, which I can't test due to a lack of IR-printers... :?
Does anynone know a solution to get the HP app running or at least a complete different program making it possible to print?
Aah, before I forget it: what about freeware?
Thanks a lot.

WestTek maybe your solution...
WestTek just updated all their software to support WM5. One of the programs is called JetCet. It allows you to print from your device. They have a 14 trial period for all their software.
NOTE: The only problem I've found so far is that their printing software (currently) does not support IP printers. You cannot configure a printer with only an IP address. You must use a printer that has a dedicated print server.
I don't know if they (WestTek) plans to upgrade their software in the future that will support IP Printers.

BTW. I think their software works well. I've printed PDFs and PowerPoints (2 slides per page (and no, you can't change that)) and they look decent. Obviously, printing from a workstation is better, but for a mobile printing solution, it works very well.

i am going to google this to find them, but for others that come after me, and perhaps if I cant find them, how about a url to them/their product?

Here ya go......
www.westtek.com

Bachmann PrintBoy does it... aaargh.
I tried the WestTek product just to find it doesn't work for me. There are only a few (Canon, HP, Epson) network-printers supported and it was impossible to get it going with my HP JetDirect printserver... not a generic approach.
So at least my biggest fear came true: the most expensive program I tried is the only one working under WM5! I can't believe it...
Bachmann PrintBoy7 does the trick, although the built in 'configure' dialog didn't work for me - calling the appropriate executable solved the problem. Besides that it's a charm to configure.
Bachmann asks for 'only' 49.99 Dollars!
That's a lot of money for printing a page once in while!!!
And they don't support the WM5 NoteTaker .pwi file-format! Nobody knows why.
All this only because MS skipped the implementation of a printing service due to more resources... :x
Does really nobody how to run the HP PrintingService under WM5?
Any progs I don't know?
Take care.
Yul.

I believe the mobileprinting software from HP is for WM 2003 only. I don't think they've come out with a new driver for WM 2005.

HP no longer offers their Mobile Printing product -- they announced this some time ago on their web site -- so there will not be a WM5 version.

Enabling Syncing on Windows Vista!

OK folks, I have no access to Windows Vista and no intention of using it until I have a registered copy
Nevertheless, I stumbled upon this link, and decided to share it here because some folks here will certainly find the information valuable:

NOTE: I have NOT tested this procedure and don't know if it works. If someone tests it, please reply in this thread with your experience.

hm.. seems that I'll give it a try..
PS: everybody can have *LEGITIMATE* key from microsoft, just for beta testing purposes.

Hey I have both vista RC1's (x86 and x64) both from M$, and the sx66 picks up on both, I dig it shows a lot more info about your device and folders.
Works just fine, haven't tried an upgrade through it, but no reason for that XP pro works just fine no? hehe

Good Email on Breeze

Has anyone been sucessful in loading/running Good email client on their Breeze? I know that the Good site doesn't list this device has compatible but it is a smartphone so it should work. Thx.

I'll answer my own question since I have the MTeoR now.......Good Mobile works just fine.

Also works great for me. I went through a lot of ROMs trying to find the one I wanted. Loaded flawlessly on each one.

Remote Desktop Mobile on Kaiser - Any Ideas?

Hi guys, looking for some pointers with this one.
Having usefully used Terminal Services on the TyTN to remote support Windows machines while out in the field, I've upgraded to the Kaiser only to find that not only is the improved Remote Desktop Mobile from WM6 not included in the build, but neither is the previous Terminal Services Client. This is a major problem for me as I don't want to have to carry two devices with me (never mind 2 SIMs and contracts!)
Having searched around it seems that Microsoft decided not to make the inclusion of Remote Desktop Mobile madatory in the build, but to offer it as an option to carriers and manufacturers. It also seems that this is something which none of the carriers has opted for - and definitely not Vodafone UK as in my case.
This really has crashed a major downer onto the otherwise brilliant bit of gear which is the Kaiser.
Has anyone any access to the RDM app for installation onto the Kaiser, or, failing that, an "easy" way to port the old TSC from the TyTN?

Try this... this is a remote desktop prog. for PPC on WM6 devices

Its available in the thread where all cabs are located (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=332438), following the big link there will point you to the wm6 remote desktop cab (http://www.cinetsystems.com/xda/Kaiser Cab Collections/WM6_RemoteDesktop.cab)

Thanks guys, brilliant work and saved me loads of gief.
(BTW - I did search across the site but couldn't anything - I'll make sure I try harder next time!)

Sync Diamond with Ubuntu

Hi,
Thought I'd start a thread to see if anyone has had any luck trying to Sync the Diamond (Windows Mobile 6.1) and Ubuntu (Evolution, Thunderbird or otherwise).
I found this thread,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=391587
which lead to this one
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=30936
but it seems miles out of date (May 2005)
If you have any solutions please let me know.
Cheers,

Hi,
it seems possible to sync WM 6.1 with Linux by synce.
But it is quite a lot to configure:
http://www.synce.org/moin/SynceWithUbuntu
I will be switching to Mandriva because it has integrated WM synchronisation:
http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/2008.1_Synchronization
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMNpI3RUwo8
Cheers!

I've heard that Mandriva has better sync abilities with WM6.1 as well, but as its open source, I would have thought that whatever Mandriva is doing can be done for Ubuntu.
When you setup Mandriva can you let me know what systems and processes are in place for the sync?
Cheers,
P

Hmm i would also like to see that, ive been trying to sync wm6 in fedora for months!!

i installed mandriva 2009 today and i can assure you it fully syncs with my htc touch running wm6. i really like mandriva but had to uninstall it because my printer was not supported. im more of a ubuntu guy myself and i agree the new version 8.10 should support syncing but i don't think it will.

Kolab Server - Kubuntu (Kontact) - ActiveSync
Hi guys,
I got it working with Kolab-Server (http://www.kolab.org), which is only needed if you need an Exchange-type collaboration server, kontact (http://pim.kde.org) and my Touch.
So basically ActiveSync on TD is communicating with kontact. I used the following tutorial:
http://www.synce.org/moin/SynceWithUbuntu
This one should also work with Evolution, but I haven't tried it myself.
Hope it helps,
regards,

Here's a closed thread about the Mandriva sync in Ubuntu with the developer:

and another summary of the needed changes:

I'd love to see some instructions of how to get this set up in Intrepid. This is the only thing I boot into Windows for.

There's a utility called HTCFlasher (found on these forums). Does that not work with the TD?
EDIT: See here

That's for flashing ROMs, not for syncing PIM data

Strange why I would post that. I synced my TyTN with this site using evolution - http://www.synce.org/moin/SynceInstallation
I am yet to try the TD
