Re: Domain Users Can't Print to Networked Printer

You might want to just set up a printer server and install it on your clients
that way so you can control the permissions. Install the printer on your
server and share it out.

Each machine is a print server for this printer then. I'm not sure what to
tell you, from what you have stated it all sounds correct, but yet it
doesn't work for you. I would contact your vendor.

I'm not sure I understand the question. This is not a shared printer, nor
a
print server. The printer is a networked printer that is connected
directly
to a switch via ethernet. I run the software on each of the machines,
which
sets up the printer using the HP TCP/IP port in the Printer and Faxes
control
panel. I set the printer to point to my AD server for DNS and DHCP. I
then
modified the permissions on the printer (on each machine) to allow
printing
to "Everyone", "Users", and "Domain Users".

Where is the share defined? I should have asked this before.

Yes, currently, Everyone has permission to print. I even tried setting
permissions for Domain Users and the user directly. Neither worked.
Only
users with Domain Admin can print.

Curiously, if I assign the user to Administrator or Administrators and
remove the user from Domain Admins, that user can no longer print.

How are the permissions set up on the print share? Does the group
Everyone
have the permission print?

I have a Windows Server 2003 R2 server set up running active
directory
as a
primary domain controller. I have am HP PhotoSmart 2610 networked
printer.
The printer is not directly connected to any computer, it is simply
connected
to the network via a switch.

I have several Windows XP Professional machines with several users.
All
users that are members of the Domain Admins group can print to the
printer
with no issues at all. However, all members of the Domain Users
group
cannot
print at all. The job just shows up in the local spool with an
error
message
indicating that the job could not print.

I moved one of the members of the Domain Users group to the Domain
Admins
group and that user could then print. I moved the user back to the
Domain
Users group and the user could no longer print.

Is there a group policy that I am missing that I need to set up for
the
Domain Users?

Any info would be greatly appreciated.
