We have a multi server Active Directory Domain Domain (one tree) all our
Servers are WIndows Server 2003 R2 running Vital QIP for DNS and DHCP. In
England we are using a Windows 2000 Server for our File and Print Server,
all
printers are registered in Active Directory.
Users (who print) still need Permission on the Print SHARE -- the AD
"printer object" is merely for searching and finding the printer, it has
nothing
to do with permissions for actually PRINTING.
On the other hand, for the users to use that Printer Object in AD, they must
have READ on the Printe and the enclosing (parent) OUs to ensure they can
search for it and FIND it (like finding a file.)
When we try to add the printer through the Printer Wizzard using "Find a
printer in the directory" option we get the following error message:
"Windows cannot connect to this Printer. Make sure that you have typed the
name correctly; and that the printer is connected to the network."
The printers however work fine when we connect directly to the server
using
the \\servername\printer name command.
