I cannot add a network printer to workstation when trying to add it from the AD directory, but the same printer can be added with the share name
(\\server\printer).
The printer is shared, and listed in the AD directory, but trying to add it,
or even right click -> Properties gives the "Could not..." error message.
This has nothing to do with user rights, since even Enterprise Admins get
the same error message.
If I add it "the old NT way" using server name and shared printer name, the
printer works fine.
