Re: Printers on Dedicated Printserver not visible



Add Printer can't display them because they were removed from the Active
Directory. If you are admin on the print server, republish the printers.

The Domain Controller performs the removal operation

Up until last week I could see 37 printers that are attached to my network
printserver server. All of the printers are showing the checkbox of "list
in
directory" as checked. When I attempt to add a network printer to a
workstation, only 2 printers are actually showing up from my print server.
Some of the locally shared printers do show up, but not the ones that I
need.

I can go into Printers and Faxes, and in the address line put in my
printserver by doing a \\psserver and all the printers show up. I can
then
select the printer I am looking for and connect and then my local machines
can utilize the printer.

Why can't the Add Printer now see all the printers and allow me to add
them
properly?
