Set Print Log Spooler Information Events


Question:

Anyone know how to set "log spooler information events" in the Print Server Properties on Win2K and XP Pro?

Answer:

Use the RegSetDWORD function on the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Providers\EventLog

Each option has a value

Log spooler error events is 1
Log spooler warning events is 2
Log spooler information events is 4

You then add these numbers up for the combination you want, for example:

A value of 7 means log information, error and warning events.

A value of 3 means only log error and warning events.
