Shared printers not printing
Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry
I've had the following problem at different locations using different 2003
Servers, but always seems to be with HP printers.
Connect the printer via IP address on the server and share out from there. I
can print just find from the server (test page or other). However, when a
client connects to the share to print, the print job just sits in the queue
until the print spooler is stopped, then restarted. The print jobs will then
go through. All the workstations can print just fine if I map them to the IP
address, just not through the server share.

... If the server tried to contact a printer and could not, say because of a sporadic hardware issue, it might report the printeras offline. ... I think that what I would do next would be to delete all the printers, then go into Server Properties and delete all the drivers. ... So I think for now if I can resolve the issue as to why I cannot remove and delete the print queues from my SBS server then I can try to reinstall from scratch without the existing print queues still in place. ... By centralizing the spooler you can control access, do "grouped" deployments, such as department/building/remote printer locations using group policy, upgrade a driver on the server and have all workstations get the new driver automatically, and...ultimately...usually a better troubleshooting experience when problems arise because you know the driver, the port, and don't have several workstations with different configurations floating out there. ...
