Re: Printer logs

There are some connectors in the LEM that look like they should do this:

However, I'm running Windows 8.1, and my testing didn't see the LEM capturing the events.  I'm not sure if this is an issue with the connectors or Windows changing log formats or something else.  I do see events that would include what you want in the Windows logs, though:

Update: One of the Support guys figured out why it wasn't working, and posted the answer internally.  This involves editing the registry, so first the usual warning:

 

Never, ever, EVER edit the registry in Windows.  You can break Windows.

 

If you must edit the registry:

  • Always make a backup before making changes
  • Always edit the registry carefully

 

  1. Open regedit and navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\eventlog
  2. Create a new Key at this location using the path of the log in Event Viewer under Applications and Services Logs. This path is also found (and should match) the 'Log File' field in the connector's settings; e.g. Microsoft-Windows-TaskScheduler/Operational
  3. Create a new connector or restart the current connector if already created.

 

On my machine, this resulted in these keys:

Data looks like this in the LEM:
