Microsoft Office Document Imaging Writer Monitor

B

Brian Meyers

I lost the 'Microsoft Office Document Imaging Writer Monitor' tool with a
recent install of SP2. I found this tool very useful and would like to get
it back. It setups an alternate printer which allows you to create a .mdi
document that can be printed later.



I made an attempt to install it through the 'Add Printer Wizard' , but I get
this error message 'Specified port cannot be added. Operation cannot be
completed'.

Repair and detect doesn't work but this did.

1. Close all running applications. If you have any Office application
running, the driver will not be installed properly.
2. Go to "Control Panel" and "Add or Remove Programs".
3. Click on "Microsoft Office 2003" and then click on "Change".
4. Check "Add or Remove Features" and click "Next".
5. On the bottom of the page check "Choose advanced customization of
applications." and click "Next".
6. Under Microsoft Office click on the + sign in front of "Office Tools"
7. Locate the object "Microsoft Office Document Imaging", click the icon
and select "Not Available".
8. Click on "Update". This will uninstall the MODI driver.
9. Repeat steps 1 to 6 to go back to the same location you were before.
10. Locate the object "Microsoft Office Document Imaging", click the icon
and select "Run from My Computer".
11. Click on "Update".

Once this is complete, you can go to "Control Panel" and then to "Printers
and Faxes", if you see a printer with the name of
"Microsoft Office Document Image Writer" then the MODI (Microsoft Office
Document Imaging) is properly installed.
