ZXP Series 7 printer is corrupting the Windows Spooler (in WS2008 Std)?
Hi Everyone,
I experienced Windows Spooler errors after attempting to install a Zebra ZXP Series 7 (https://www.zebra.com/us/en/products/printers/card/zxp-series-7.html) printer onto a Windows
Server 2008 x64 (not R2!) computer.
I installed the standard software package for the printer from Zebra onto the Server. This resulted in the programs 'Zebra ZXP Series
7 Toolbox' and 'Zebra ZXP Series 7 Card Printer' being added to the list of installed programs. Furthermore it results in several dll files, and an executable file being written to C:\Windows\System32.
After the installation I started seeing some strange behaviour in Print Management, such as no network printers being listed, and then
when I checked the spooler I noticed that it was off. During my experimentation with the spooler I saw the messages shown below -
Throughout my attempts to get the spooler running smoothly with the Zebra installed I kept having unexpected spooler behaviour, for
example (in addition to the messages above) even though the spooler was set to start automatically it did not start by itself after reboots (as shown below).
Because I could not resolve the spooler error I made the decision to uninstall the Zebra software, this required an additional Server
reboot which unfortunately did not fix the spooler issue shown above. It was only after I renamed the Zebra files in C:\Windows\System32 (as shown below) and performed a final reboot that the print spooler started automatically and printing (on other printers)
came back to normal.
If anybody has experienced this issue with the ZXP Series 7 printer can you please respond with how you overcame the issue.
I would like to post to the Zebra forums, however these only appear to be open to 'partners'.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Davo

Print Server 2012r2 Konica printers using native drivers - Windows 7 clients using enhanced point and print drivers
We have recently moved to Server 2012r2 for our primary print server and have a fleet of 16 Konica bizhub c454's setup/shared using the driver that comes natively on Server 2012r2. Our client base is all Windows 7 64bit connecting to these shares with the MS Enhanced Point and Print Compatibility drivers.
Our server is a VM with no custom changes to the spooler file location.
At first all was working as expected but recently pdf file being printed through the server have started to provide this error and not print:
The document Print Document, owned by XXX, failed to print on printer 2F-North-KO454. Try to print the document again, or restart the print spooler.
Data type: RAW. Size of the spool file in bytes: 0. Number of bytes printed: 0. Total number of pages in the document: 0. Number of pages printed: 0. Client computer: XXXX. Win32 error code returned by the print processor: 2152796161.
There seems to be very little mention of anything with this specific error code (2152796161).
Before biting the bullet and making all new print queues with actual Konica drivers and then changing 500 peoples printers thought group policy, I thought I would pose this question.
Any insight is appreciated.

Are these needed
Hi
Just set up a new print server (Windows 2012 r2) and have these drivers installed by default:

- Microsoft enhanced Point and Print compatibility driver
Are these needed (have deleted the XPS printer)?
Thanks

Printers and AD - Deploy? Publish?
Hi all --
I am in the process of upgrading my primary print servers from Windows 2008 R2 physical to Windows 2012 R2 virtual. I've got all of the printers / drivers / ports migrated. These printers are shared off of our print server. My question is - what is a reason to publish the printer in AD? Furthermore - on the print server itself, why would I deploy a printer (in the print management console).
We haven't done this in our organization and I am wondering what benefit it provides.
Thanks in advance
sb

Push default printer settings from server - setprinter.exe ?
Hi,
I need to push out some new default printer settings (mono and duplex) for 300 printers across about 12 x 2003/2008 print servers. All of these devices are already mapped by around 2500 WinXP/7 users, so reconnecting the devices for everybody is not an option, nor is redeploying via GPO. I've read the following thread, which appears to explain what I need to do:
Firstly, I need the latest version of setprinter.exe, as the one I've got is date stamped April 2003, which I assume is the one that fails to work with devmode 9. Does anybody know where I can get this from?
Secondly, I think it says that the clients will periodically update themselves with the server's default settings. This is perfect, if correct. However, would anybody please be able to explain when these periodic updates take place?
Many thanks in advance !
Andy

Best way to add drivers for a printer via MDT?
I have some computers where I'm deploying the image via MDT currently and we just had all our printers upgraded/changed.
What would be the best way to push out the driver updates to all our users? Should I include it in the driver list for for each relevant machine? Have a ruleset that asks to install the printer? as an application?
I've read a few different methods online on how to do it, but looking for best practice and ease of deployment.
Thanks

Spooler service keep stopping/ accumulating
Hello all,
Im facing a problem now, we have this VM enviroment running a Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 Standard Edition X86, on this server we run the SQL SERVER, the application.
The application create labels that are sent to the printers on the production line and also another .dat file that is imported by other application on a different server.
Periodically we got this issue that the spooler stops processing and keep accumulating.
We use the printer ZEBRA Z4M (200dpi) with the latest drivers already installed.
We didn't find any issue with disk space.
We are still using the default system folder for the spooler.
We use the same configuration on other servers and it works perfectly.
As a workaround to this problem we periodically clean the printer buffers and restart the spool service.
But we can't find the root cause for this nor any permanent solution.
Does anyone have a good idea what to do?

Print Management for Shared Printers
Seeking help on this please.
I'm not sure if I'm doing this right. I'm trying to deploy a Windows 2008 R2 with a Print Server Role. I want to centralized our network and shared printer in one Printer server.
It works fine when deploying network printers. But I am having a hard time installing for existing print server (e.g WINXP with a shared printer). I'm trying to add it via local port it seems to work on the server side. But it wont work on client side.
Appreciate your feedback.

Printer Server status does not refresh
Some printer events does not propagate to the print server. An example is the out of paper event. After the paper bin is filled, the print server status will still show Out Of Paper. Users cannot print and get an Out of Paper message.
Turning the printers off and on again with the on/off switch does not clear the out of paper status. We need to unplug and plug the printer again before the Out of Paper status clears.
Can someone tell me how to resolve this problem? Is it possible to refresh the print server?
Configuration:
- Windows server 2012
- Print Server on a Virtual Machine
- HP LaserJet printers. Bios are up to date
- Windows 8.1 64 bit workstations
Thanks.

FAX Server not Printing to PDF Printer
I'm running Server 2012 R2. I'm looking for a way to have the incoming faxes saved in PDF format (not TIFF). I was hoping to be able to have the Fax Server print to a PDF printer (currently using Bullzip). I can't seem to get it to print to the PDF printer. I can print the fax from "Scan and Fax" to the printer just fine. The end result is that I need an "automated" way of getting the incoming faxes into a PDF format. Any suggestions or solutions? Thanks for any help.

Unable to configure certificate for Scan Management
I am trying to test the Distributed Scan Management feature of 2008 R2. I have installed the role and selected "create a self-signed" certificate.
However, when I try to add a Scan Server I get an error saying
"The following devices could not be accessed because they are offline, there is a network issue, the names are incorrect, or the certificate needed to contact the device has not been selected: MYSERVER.COM"
I get the same error when trying to add a device as well.
If I right-click the Scan Servers section and select "Select client certificate" I get a "No certificate available" message.
What am I doing wrong?

Move print server to new domain
I had first created a print server (new server hardware) on an entirely new domain, let's call it DomainB. I listed these in AD. Later, after spending hours setting up all the printers, I was told we're abandoning DomainB and just to join that new server to the old domain, let's call it DomainA. I know i's easy enough to unjoin one domain, rejoin another, which I did, but when I modified my group policies that push printers, to point to the new server (new UNC path versus previous UNC path to my old print server (old server hardware), it did not print.
Just some history: When I first build that new print server on the new domain, I had tried creating a printer migration file from the old print server on my old domain, then importing that to my new print server on my new
domain, and it was pretty much a dismal failure. If I recall I think if it migrated anything, it was just the 'Microsoft XPS Document writer', or maybe 3 or 4 other printers ---- out of a total of around 50 printers! (that is why I
had to set them all up from scratch again) So hopefully no one will suggest that to me. Maybe? it had something to do with migrating between domains, or else with the new print server being 2012 R2 and the old 2008 R2?
Anyhow...hoping there's some easier way to get the old domain (that we've decided to keep) to recognize these printers on the new print server......

Unable to move Print Spooler Folder, Server 2008R2 Standard
I am trying to move the print spooler folder to the E:\ drive. But it gives an error, can't save server settings, access denied. I am accessing the server properties using the print management console. Actually that was the only way I could access them.
How do I move the folder?

Slow connection when firewall is enabled
Hi,
I have a new setup with a 2012R2 print server and XenApp 7.5 also on 2012R2, with Office 2013 installed.
I have a problem with HP's Universal Print drivers. When a user has a printer setup with HP UPD, everyone he starts for example Word and tries to print, then it says "Connecting to printer" which takes 30-60 seconds. After that printing works fine.
I have tried many versions of the HP UPD driver - both PCL5 and PCL6.
http://discussions.citrix.com/topic/355454-xenapp-75-office-2010-slow-print-dialog-printer-connection/
And have disabled advanced printing features and automatic configuration. I also tried using WINPRINT as print processor - nothing helped. I then found out that when I disabled Windows firewall on the print server, then the problem dissapeared.
I then enabled logging for dropped packets - but nothing appeared in the log when I enabled the firewall again.
I tried with Wireshark and could see some connections on port 8080 which was dropped. I made a rule that opened that opened 8080, but it didn't work.
Then I thought that I would make a rule that allowed any traffic from the Xenapp servers and enabled successfull connections in the log - hopefully I could see which ports then.
But the strange thing is that it didn't solve the problem when I made an any rule?? I then tried allowing any port from any destination - still the same problem
I can't see the difference between disabling the firewall and making an any rule?
Anyone else tried experienced this problem?
Or maybe someone know how to make the HP UPD stop trying to connect on other ports.
