Hi all,
I have a situation where a network printer is getting added to every computer
in the company at boot up.
I am trying to figure out how this printer continues to get installed, and stop
this from happening.
Here's what I've narrowed it down to so far...
remove printer, reboot, log into LAN, printer reappears - suggests GPO, but I
can't find any GPO even referencing this printer.
remove printer, reboot, log into Laptop offline, printer reappears - Offline,
meaning not connected to the LAN at all (wired or wireless)
remove printer, *log off*, log into laptop offline, printer does not appear
reboot, log into laptop offline, printer reappears - after a reboot, the
printer comes back.
Windows 8.1
2008R2 domain
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
