What Is the Process for Changing an Existing Workstation's Elliott Workstation ID?
Release Date: 07/16/19
Version: 7.0 & up
Q - What is the process
for changing an existing workstation's Elliott Workstation ID? I think I have some printing issues which are probably caused by the workstation ID issue.
A - Login to Elliott as SUPERVISOR. Then go to setup -> Print etc. tab, and you will see the Workstation-ID become editable. See the sample screen below:
On the other hand, if you do not login as SUPERVISOR in Elliott, the Workstation-ID is greyed out.
Alternatively, the Workstation-ID is saved in the Windows registry as part of your desktop user profile. You can access it by bringing up the REGEDIT utility and accessing the following path:
\\HEKY_CURRENT_USER\Software\NETcellent\Elliott\8.0\Configuration\Workstation
See sample screen below:
