Hi,
I have a network with ~10 XP Pro clients. They login to a domain
controller (Windows 2003). One of the clients has an HP OfficeJet 85
Printer connected via USB. This printer has been shared over the
network for months, and there was no problem so far. Until I created a
new user account for that computer and erased the old one. Now we have
printing problems.
First, clients couldn't see the printer. Later they could see and add
the printer, and use it. Now everybody see the printer as "offline.",
and cannot send any printing job.
I removed & readded and re-shared the printer by logging on as local
admin first. Then I logged on as this new domain user. Problems start
appearing again. Once the printer is shared on a computer, it doesn't
matter which user logs on the computer, does it?
I double checked the permissions and it's given that "Everybody" is
allowed to "print". I also tried to add DOMAIN\Users, but it didn't
recognize the group as I was logging as local administrator.
Another thing is half of the computers are SP1 (including the one with
printer) while others SP2.
How can I troubleshoot this? Any suggestions?
Thank you.
