Anyone know why a printer deployed by GPO would work fine for some
machines that have it and give an error and not print for others?
The error is one that indicates a faulty/incorrect/bad driver, but like
I said, other people can print to this printer just fine.

It’s upset you aren’t using iPrint.

Oh believe me, that bothers me as well.

What’s the difference between the machines?
Based on the error message my first thought is 64bit drivers vs. 32bit
OS or vice-versa.

Starting tomorrow it won’t have to bother you any more.

in the meantime this might help you out
on the client machine with the problem, open control panel and go to
admin tools - print management and expand print servers where you should
see the local machine
remove the drive for the problem printer from the local machine, then
remove the connection to the printer and readd it
i’ve had similar issues with printers not working on machine even with
iprint until I remove the driver from the local print server driver
store and reconnect to it

Hey Stevo,
Gotta see the humor here… you are asking for M$ support in a Novell
forum

Both are windows 7 64 bit machines, only difference is the one that
works is physical, the ones that don’t are virtual.

Because our iPrint appliance is available starting today and can be
leveraged in an AD-only environment!

Well I can’t ask for Novell support in here.
Figure folks in here are pretty d**n smart, so they should be able to
help.

What type of licensing does that require? We are only going to have
Groupwise licensing eventually…

It requires iPrint licensing. You definitely don’t need to license OES
to use this. And if you don’t need mobile printing right now, which
the appliance offers, you can license just desktop printing in the
appliance.

Not sure I can talk my boss into adding licensing cost, that was the
big reason he wanted to move to ad, since we were told we needed m$
cals anyway for one application.

It’s because he knows he’s more likely to receive an appropriate answer,
not, “Do you have the latest drivers?” or “Reboot.”

That’s a pretty big difference actually and sounds like policy is
being enforced differently or ignored. Does the policy do checking
based on hardware?

Policy is set to deploy printers on the computer portion, no hardware
checking.
