I am the IT technician for a company that supplies wire harnesses to Daimler Crysler through JIT delivery. We are running an EDI (NT work station) server wich runs the communications between ourselves and DC. Every now and again, when I test connections to the printer, I get a missing DLL error. Even after I copy all the DLL's back to the server, after a while I get teh same error. MS can;t seem to give me an answer. Can anyone else?

It's hard to have a specific answer without knowing what DLL is missing and whether it is the same one every time. Also, it would be helpful to know how you are testing the printer connection (through Control Panel?)

Have you checked to see if the DLL is actually missing? It could be that a registry key is hosed and the program that is looking for the DLL is looking in the wrong place.

These problems can be elusive and hard to track down but you might consider running sysdiff to see if you can identify any registry changes that precede the problem.

I have no idea which dll is missing, that would make life alot easier. Testing the connection is through the edi software

Reinstall the printer driver.
