# Printer Mapping Migration Report
|
||||
|
||||
**Date:** 2025-10-22
|
||||
**Author:** Development Team
|
||||
**Status:** Analysis Complete - Ready for Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Executive Summary
|
||||
|
||||
The `printers` table now has `maptop` and `mapleft` columns added for direct printer location mapping on the shop floor map. This migration report outlines the necessary code changes to transition from machine-based printer positioning to direct printer positioning.
|
||||
|
||||
### Database Changes Completed ✅
|
||||
- Added `maptop INT(11)` column to `printers` table
|
||||
- Added `mapleft INT(11)` column to `printers` table
|
||||
- Both columns are nullable (default NULL)
|
||||
- Positioned after `machineid` column
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Current Implementation Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. **printermap.asp** - Main Map View
|
||||
|
||||
**Current Behavior:**
|
||||
- Queries printers joined with machines to get map coordinates
|
||||
- Uses `machines.maptop` and `machines.mapleft` for printer positioning
|
||||
- Shows printer at machine location
|
||||
- Requires `printers.machineid != 1` (excludes unassigned printers)
|
||||
|
||||
**SQL Query (Lines 186-189):**
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
SELECT machines.mapleft, machines.maptop, machines.machinenumber,
|
||||
printers.printerid, printers.printercsfname, printers.printerwindowsname,
|
||||
models.modelnumber, models.image, printers.ipaddress, printers.fqdn,
|
||||
machines.machinenotes, machines.alias
|
||||
FROM machines, printers, models
|
||||
WHERE printers.modelid = models.modelnumberid
|
||||
AND printers.machineid != 1
|
||||
AND printers.machineid = machines.machineid
|
||||
AND printers.isactive = 1
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Location Display (Lines 202-207):**
|
||||
```vbscript
|
||||
' Uses alias if available, otherwise machinenumber
|
||||
if NOT IsNull(rs("alias")) AND rs("alias") <> "" THEN
|
||||
location = rs("alias")
|
||||
else
|
||||
location = rs("machinenumber")
|
||||
end if
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Issues:**
|
||||
- ❌ Printers without machine assignment (`machineid=1`) are excluded from map
|
||||
- ❌ Multiple printers at same machine appear stacked on same coordinate
|
||||
- ❌ Cannot position printer independently of machine
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. **addprinter.asp** - Add New Printer Form
|
||||
|
||||
**Current Behavior:**
|
||||
- Form includes machine dropdown (required field)
|
||||
- Uses machineid to determine printer location
|
||||
- No map coordinate input fields
|
||||
|
||||
**Location Field (Lines 174-197):**
|
||||
```vbscript
|
||||
<div class="form-group">
|
||||
<label for="machineid">Location (Machine) <span class="text-danger">*</span></label>
|
||||
<select class="form-control" id="machineid" name="machineid" required>
|
||||
<option value="">-- Select Location --</option>
|
||||
<!-- Lists all machines -->
|
||||
</select>
|
||||
<small class="form-text text-muted">Which machine/location is this printer at?</small>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Issues:**
|
||||
- ❌ No way to set `maptop`/`mapleft` during printer creation
|
||||
- ❌ Printer position tied to machine selection
|
||||
- ❌ Cannot add printer without machine assignment
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. **saveprinter_direct.asp** - Save New Printer
|
||||
|
||||
**Current Behavior:**
|
||||
- Inserts printer with machineid
|
||||
- Does not handle maptop/mapleft
|
||||
|
||||
**INSERT Statement (Line 191-192):**
|
||||
```vbscript
|
||||
strSQL = "INSERT INTO printers (modelid, serialnumber, ipaddress, fqdn,
|
||||
printercsfname, printerwindowsname, machineid, isactive) " & _
|
||||
"VALUES (...)"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Issues:**
|
||||
- ❌ Does not insert `maptop`/`mapleft` values
|
||||
- ❌ New printers won't have coordinates
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. **editprinter.asp** - Edit Printer Form
|
||||
|
||||
**Current Behavior:**
|
||||
- Similar to addprinter.asp
|
||||
- Shows machine dropdown
|
||||
- No map coordinate fields
|
||||
|
||||
**Issues:**
|
||||
- ❌ Cannot edit printer coordinates
|
||||
- ❌ No map picker interface
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. **saveprinter.asp** - Update Printer
|
||||
|
||||
**Current Behavior:**
|
||||
- Updates printer fields including machineid
|
||||
- Does not update maptop/mapleft
|
||||
|
||||
**UPDATE Statement (Lines 168-176):**
|
||||
```vbscript
|
||||
strSQL = "UPDATE printers SET " & _
|
||||
"modelid = " & modelid & ", " & _
|
||||
"serialnumber = '" & serialnumber & "', " & _
|
||||
"ipaddress = '" & ipaddress & "', " & _
|
||||
"fqdn = '" & fqdn & "', " & _
|
||||
"printercsfname = '" & printercsfname & "', " & _
|
||||
"printerwindowsname = '" & printerwindowsname & "', " & _
|
||||
"machineid = " & machineid & " " & _
|
||||
"WHERE printerid = " & printerid
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Issues:**
|
||||
- ❌ Does not update `maptop`/`mapleft`
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. **displayprinter.asp** - View Printer Details
|
||||
|
||||
**Current Behavior:**
|
||||
- Shows printer details
|
||||
- Displays location as machine number/alias
|
||||
- Has clickable location link
|
||||
|
||||
**Location Display (Lines 87-91):**
|
||||
```vbscript
|
||||
<p class="mb-2">
|
||||
<span class="location-link" data-machineid="<%Response.Write(machineid)%>"
|
||||
style="cursor:pointer; color:#007bff;">
|
||||
<i class="zmdi zmdi-pin" style="margin-right:4px;"></i>
|
||||
<%Response.Write(rs("machinenumber"))%>
|
||||
</span>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Issues:**
|
||||
- ❌ Still references machine location
|
||||
- ❌ No display of printer's actual map coordinates
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Required Code Changes
|
||||
|
||||
### Priority 1: Core Map Functionality
|
||||
|
||||
#### 1. **printermap.asp** - Update Query to Use Printer Coordinates
|
||||
|
||||
**Change SQL Query (Lines 186-189):**
|
||||
|
||||
```vbscript
|
||||
<%
|
||||
' OLD (commented out):
|
||||
' strSQL = "SELECT machines.mapleft, machines.maptop, machines.machinenumber, ... FROM machines, printers ..."
|
||||
|
||||
' NEW - Use printer coordinates, fallback to machine if not set
|
||||
strSQL = "SELECT " &_
|
||||
"COALESCE(printers.mapleft, machines.mapleft) AS mapleft, " &_
|
||||
"COALESCE(printers.maptop, machines.maptop) AS maptop, " &_
|
||||
"machines.machinenumber, machines.alias, " &_
|
||||
"printers.printerid, printers.printercsfname, printers.printerwindowsname, " &_
|
||||
"models.modelnumber, models.image, printers.ipaddress, printers.fqdn, " &_
|
||||
"printers.maptop AS printer_maptop, printers.mapleft AS printer_mapleft " &_
|
||||
"FROM printers " &_
|
||||
"INNER JOIN models ON printers.modelid = models.modelnumberid " &_
|
||||
"LEFT JOIN machines ON printers.machineid = machines.machineid " &_
|
||||
"WHERE printers.isactive = 1 " &_
|
||||
" AND (printers.maptop IS NOT NULL OR machines.maptop IS NOT NULL)"
|
||||
|
||||
set rs = objconn.Execute(strSQL)
|
||||
while not rs.eof
|
||||
mapleft = rs("mapleft")
|
||||
maptop = rs("maptop")
|
||||
maptop = 2550 - maptop ' Coordinate transformation
|
||||
' ... rest of code
|
||||
%>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Benefits:**
|
||||
- ✅ Uses printer coordinates if available
|
||||
- ✅ Falls back to machine coordinates if printer coordinates not set
|
||||
- ✅ Includes printers without machine assignment (if they have coordinates)
|
||||
- ✅ Backward compatible during migration
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
#### 2. **addprinter.asp** & **editprinter.asp** - Add Map Picker
|
||||
|
||||
**Add New Form Fields (after line 197 in addprinter.asp):**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<div class="form-group">
|
||||
<label>Map Position</label>
|
||||
<div class="row">
|
||||
<div class="col-md-6">
|
||||
<label for="maptop">Map Top</label>
|
||||
<input type="number" class="form-control" id="maptop" name="maptop"
|
||||
placeholder="Y coordinate (0-2550)" min="0" max="2550">
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<div class="col-md-6">
|
||||
<label for="mapleft">Map Left</label>
|
||||
<input type="number" class="form-control" id="mapleft" name="mapleft"
|
||||
placeholder="X coordinate (0-3300)" min="0" max="3300">
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<small class="form-text text-muted">
|
||||
Leave blank to use machine location.
|
||||
<a href="./printermap.asp" target="_blank" style="color:#007bff;">
|
||||
<i class="zmdi zmdi-map"></i> Open map in new tab
|
||||
</a> to find coordinates.
|
||||
</small>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Optional: Add map picker button -->
|
||||
<div class="form-group">
|
||||
<button type="button" class="btn btn-sm btn-info" id="openMapPicker">
|
||||
<i class="zmdi zmdi-map"></i> Pick Location on Map
|
||||
</button>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Add JavaScript for Map Picker Modal (before closing `</body>`):**
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
<script>
|
||||
// Map picker functionality
|
||||
$('#openMapPicker').on('click', function() {
|
||||
// Option 1: Simple - open map in new window
|
||||
window.open('./printermap.asp', 'mapPicker', 'width=1200,height=800');
|
||||
|
||||
// Option 2: Advanced - inline modal with Leaflet (future enhancement)
|
||||
// Show modal with embedded map, allow clicking to select coordinates
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// If machine is selected, optionally pre-fill coordinates from machine
|
||||
$('#machineid').on('change', function() {
|
||||
var machineid = $(this).val();
|
||||
if (machineid && machineid != '1') {
|
||||
// AJAX call to get machine coordinates
|
||||
$.get('./api_machine_coordinates.asp?machineid=' + machineid, function(data) {
|
||||
if (data.maptop && data.mapleft) {
|
||||
// Optionally suggest coordinates
|
||||
if (confirm('Use machine location coordinates?\nTop: ' + data.maptop + ', Left: ' + data.mapleft)) {
|
||||
$('#maptop').val(data.maptop);
|
||||
$('#mapleft').val(data.mapleft);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
</script>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
#### 3. **saveprinter_direct.asp** - Handle Map Coordinates on Insert
|
||||
|
||||
**Add Input Collection (after line 18):**
|
||||
|
||||
```vbscript
|
||||
Dim maptop, mapleft
|
||||
maptop = Trim(Request.Form("maptop"))
|
||||
mapleft = Trim(Request.Form("mapleft"))
|
||||
|
||||
' Validate coordinates if provided
|
||||
If maptop <> "" And Not IsNumeric(maptop) Then
|
||||
Response.Write("<div class='alert alert-danger'>Error: Invalid map top coordinate.</div>")
|
||||
Response.Write("<a href='addprinter.asp'>Go back</a>")
|
||||
objConn.Close
|
||||
Response.End
|
||||
End If
|
||||
|
||||
If mapleft <> "" And Not IsNumeric(mapleft) Then
|
||||
Response.Write("<div class='alert alert-danger'>Error: Invalid map left coordinate.</div>")
|
||||
Response.Write("<a href='addprinter.asp'>Go back</a>")
|
||||
objConn.Close
|
||||
Response.End
|
||||
End If
|
||||
|
||||
' Convert to integers or NULL
|
||||
Dim maptopSQL, mapleftSQL
|
||||
If maptop <> "" And IsNumeric(maptop) Then
|
||||
maptopSQL = CLng(maptop)
|
||||
Else
|
||||
maptopSQL = "NULL"
|
||||
End If
|
||||
|
||||
If mapleft <> "" And IsNumeric(mapleft) Then
|
||||
mapleftSQL = CLng(mapleft)
|
||||
Else
|
||||
mapleftSQL = "NULL"
|
||||
End If
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Update INSERT Statement (line 191):**
|
||||
|
||||
```vbscript
|
||||
strSQL = "INSERT INTO printers (modelid, serialnumber, ipaddress, fqdn, " &_
|
||||
"printercsfname, printerwindowsname, machineid, maptop, mapleft, isactive) " &_
|
||||
"VALUES (" & modelid & ", '" & serialnumber & "', '" & ipaddress & "', " &_
|
||||
"'" & fqdn & "', '" & printercsfname & "', '" & printerwindowsname & "', " &_
|
||||
machineid & ", " & maptopSQL & ", " & mapleftSQL & ", 1)"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
#### 4. **saveprinter.asp** - Handle Map Coordinates on Update
|
||||
|
||||
**Add Same Input Collection Code as saveprinter_direct.asp**
|
||||
|
||||
**Update UPDATE Statement (line 168):**
|
||||
|
||||
```vbscript
|
||||
strSQL = "UPDATE printers SET " &_
|
||||
"modelid = " & modelid & ", " &_
|
||||
"serialnumber = '" & serialnumber & "', " &_
|
||||
"ipaddress = '" & ipaddress & "', " &_
|
||||
"fqdn = '" & fqdn & "', " &_
|
||||
"printercsfname = '" & printercsfname & "', " &_
|
||||
"printerwindowsname = '" & printerwindowsname & "', " &_
|
||||
"machineid = " & machineid & ", " &_
|
||||
"maptop = " & maptopSQL & ", " &_
|
||||
"mapleft = " & mapleftSQL & " " &_
|
||||
"WHERE printerid = " & printerid
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Priority 2: Enhanced Features
|
||||
|
||||
#### 5. **displayprinter.asp** - Show Map Coordinates
|
||||
|
||||
**Add to Settings Tab (after line 81):**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<p class="mb-2"><strong>Map Position:</strong></p>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Add to Values Column (after line 93):**
|
||||
|
||||
```vbscript
|
||||
<p class="mb-2">
|
||||
<%
|
||||
If NOT IsNull(rs("maptop")) AND NOT IsNull(rs("mapleft")) Then
|
||||
Response.Write("Top: " & rs("maptop") & ", Left: " & rs("mapleft"))
|
||||
Response.Write(" <a href='./printermap.asp' target='_blank' style='color:#007bff;' title='View on Map'>")
|
||||
Response.Write("<i class='zmdi zmdi-map'></i></a>")
|
||||
ElseIf NOT IsNull(rs("machines.maptop")) Then
|
||||
Response.Write("Using machine location")
|
||||
Else
|
||||
Response.Write("<span style='color:#999;'>Not set</span>")
|
||||
End If
|
||||
%>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
#### 6. Create Helper API: **api_machine_coordinates.asp**
|
||||
|
||||
**New File:**
|
||||
|
||||
```vbscript
|
||||
<%@ Language="VBScript" %>
|
||||
<%
|
||||
Response.ContentType = "application/json"
|
||||
Response.Charset = "UTF-8"
|
||||
|
||||
<!--#include file="./includes/sql.asp"-->
|
||||
|
||||
Dim machineid
|
||||
machineid = Request.QueryString("machineid")
|
||||
|
||||
If NOT IsNumeric(machineid) Then
|
||||
Response.Write("{""error"":""Invalid machine ID""}")
|
||||
objConn.Close
|
||||
Response.End
|
||||
End If
|
||||
|
||||
Dim strSQL, rs
|
||||
strSQL = "SELECT maptop, mapleft FROM machines WHERE machineid = " & CLng(machineid)
|
||||
Set rs = objConn.Execute(strSQL)
|
||||
|
||||
If NOT rs.EOF Then
|
||||
Response.Write("{")
|
||||
Response.Write("""maptop"":" & rs("maptop") & ",")
|
||||
Response.Write("""mapleft"":" & rs("mapleft"))
|
||||
Response.Write("}")
|
||||
Else
|
||||
Response.Write("{""error"":""Machine not found""}")
|
||||
End If
|
||||
|
||||
rs.Close
|
||||
Set rs = Nothing
|
||||
objConn.Close
|
||||
%>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Priority 3: Data Migration
|
||||
|
||||
#### 7. Create Migration Script for Existing Printers
|
||||
|
||||
**New File: sql/migrate_printer_coordinates.sql**
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
-- ============================================================================
|
||||
-- Migrate Printer Coordinates from Machine Locations
|
||||
-- ============================================================================
|
||||
-- This copies machine coordinates to printers that don't have their own coordinates
|
||||
-- Run this ONCE after adding maptop/mapleft columns to printers
|
||||
|
||||
-- Update printers to inherit machine coordinates where not already set
|
||||
UPDATE printers p
|
||||
INNER JOIN machines m ON p.machineid = m.machineid
|
||||
SET
|
||||
p.maptop = m.maptop,
|
||||
p.mapleft = m.mapleft
|
||||
WHERE
|
||||
p.maptop IS NULL
|
||||
AND p.mapleft IS NULL
|
||||
AND m.maptop IS NOT NULL
|
||||
AND m.mapleft IS NOT NULL
|
||||
AND p.isactive = 1;
|
||||
|
||||
-- Report: Show printers with coordinates
|
||||
SELECT
|
||||
'Printers with own coordinates' AS status,
|
||||
COUNT(*) AS count
|
||||
FROM printers
|
||||
WHERE maptop IS NOT NULL AND mapleft IS NOT NULL AND isactive = 1
|
||||
|
||||
UNION ALL
|
||||
|
||||
SELECT
|
||||
'Printers without coordinates' AS status,
|
||||
COUNT(*) AS count
|
||||
FROM printers
|
||||
WHERE (maptop IS NULL OR mapleft IS NULL) AND isactive = 1;
|

## Implementation Plan
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 1: Core Changes (Day 1)
|
||||
1. ✅ Add maptop/mapleft to printers table (COMPLETE)
|
||||
2. ⬜ Update printermap.asp query
|
||||
3. ⬜ Update saveprinter_direct.asp INSERT
|
||||
4. ⬜ Update saveprinter.asp UPDATE
|
||||
5. ⬜ Run data migration SQL script
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 2: Form Updates (Day 2)
|
||||
1. ⬜ Add coordinate fields to addprinter.asp
|
||||
2. ⬜ Add coordinate fields to editprinter.asp
|
||||
3. ⬜ Test printer creation with coordinates
|
||||
4. ⬜ Test printer editing with coordinates
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 3: Enhanced Features (Day 3)
|
||||
1. ⬜ Add map picker button functionality
|
||||
2. ⬜ Create api_machine_coordinates.asp
|
||||
3. ⬜ Update displayprinter.asp to show coordinates
|
||||
4. ⬜ Test full workflow
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 4: Testing & Documentation (Day 4)
|
||||
1. ⬜ Test with various printer scenarios
|
||||
2. ⬜ Update user documentation
|
||||
3. ⬜ Train users on new feature
|
||||
4. ⬜ Monitor for issues

## Testing Checklist
|
||||
|
||||
### Backward Compatibility
|
||||
- ⬜ Existing printers without coordinates still appear on map (using machine location)
|
||||
- ⬜ Machine dropdown still functions
|
||||
- ⬜ Printers assigned to machineid=1 can now have coordinates
|
||||
|
||||
### New Functionality
|
||||
- ⬜ Can add printer with custom coordinates
|
||||
- ⬜ Can edit printer coordinates
|
||||
- ⬜ Can leave coordinates blank (uses machine location)
|
||||
- ⬜ Multiple printers at same machine can have different positions
|
||||
- ⬜ Printers without machine assignment can appear on map
|
||||
|
||||
### Edge Cases
|
||||
- ⬜ Printer with machineid=1 and no coordinates (should not appear on map)
|
||||
- ⬜ Printer with coordinates but machineid=1 (should appear on map)
|
||||
- ⬜ Invalid coordinate values (should be rejected)
|
||||
- ⬜ Null/empty coordinate values (should use machine location)
|
||||

## Benefits of This Approach
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Backward Compatible**: Existing printers continue to work using machine locations
|
||||
2. **Flexible**: Printers can be positioned independently of machines
|
||||
3. **Gradual Migration**: Can update printer positions over time
|
||||
4. **No Data Loss**: Machine associations are preserved
|
||||
5. **Better Accuracy**: Printers can show actual physical location

## Future Enhancements
|
||||
|
||||
### Interactive Map Picker
|
||||
Create a modal with embedded Leaflet map where users can:
|
||||
- Click to select printer location
|
||||
- See existing printers and machines
|
||||
- Drag printer icon to new position
|
||||
- Visual grid/snap-to-grid option
|
||||
|
||||
### Bulk Update Tool
|
||||
Create admin page to:
|
||||
- List all printers with/without coordinates
|
||||
- Bulk copy coordinates from machines
|
||||
- Bulk adjust coordinates (offset all by X/Y)
|
||||
- Import coordinates from CSV
|
||||
|
||||
### Map Filtering
|
||||
Add printermap.asp filters for:
|
||||
- Show only printers with custom coordinates
|
||||
- Show only printers using machine locations
|
||||
- Highlight printers without any location
|
||||
- Filter by printer model/vendor

## Questions for Stakeholders
|
||||
|
||||
1. Should we automatically copy machine coordinates to all existing printers? (Recommended: YES)
|
||||
2. Should machineid still be required? (Recommended: Make optional, but keep for reference)
|
||||
3. Do we need coordinate validation beyond 0-2550/0-3300 ranges?
|
||||
4. Should we add a "sync with machine" button to copy machine coords to printer?
|
||||
5. Priority level for interactive map picker vs manual coordinate entry?
