I wanted everything inside of it like http://www.blendedtechnologies.com/justoneclubcard/index.py and even including all those CGI GET paramters to seamlessly be transferred over to the new domain.

Well, I did it, and it was easy!, Check those links in the last paragraph if you don’t believe me ;-)

This site explained it best. Ultimately it was as simple as adding the following line to my .htaccess file in my root directory of the Blended Technologies website:
Redirect /justoneclubcard http://www.justoneclubcard.com/

Optional Explaination
So the line above is saying to send any browser requesting the directory /justoneclubcard over to http://www.justoneclubcard.com/. And /justoneclubcard corresponds to the external URL of http://www.blendedtechnologies.com/justoneclubcard/. The .htaccess file just doesn’t need to see the http://www.blendedtechnologies.com/ part because that’s what / means to it.

If you’re not familiar with the .htaccess file, here’s a good primer to get you started.

It basically is a rating for the durability of the printer. It means how many pages per month can it handle without breaking apart. So stay under that limit and you’ll have years of happy printing.

Found the answer in this Google group posting.

(You’ll need that accessory to even have two trays ;-) )

To tell the printer about the drawer:

Go to control panel
Open up Printers and Faxes
Right click on the printer in question
Select Properties
Go to the Install Options tab
Add the 550 Sheet Drawer
Click OK

Now neither tray will be grayed out when you print.

My searches:

  1. dell 1700 n select tray
  2. dell 1700n select OR choose tray

That little bubble that pops up from my system tray to tell me “the document was sent to the printer” was really annoying me.

    Here’s what I searched for:

  1. “the document was sent to the printer” turn off

Here’s the answer:

1. Click Start, and then click Printers and Faxes.
2. On the File menu, click Server Properties.
3. On the Advanced click the options you want to apply:
• Show informational notifications for local printers. This option notifies users when a job is printed on a printer that is attached to this computer.
• Show informational notifications for network printers. This option notifies users of this computer when a job is printed on a remote computer.

I found this answer here, and there is also more information there for other types of printer setups.

Update:
I also found these registry changes for Windows XP on this Troubleshooting Windows XP Site which you may want to try if the above advice isn’t working:

This one is for balloon tips disable:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"EnableBalloonTips"=dword:00000000

And this one is for disabling all balloon tips?

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"EnableBalloonTips"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
