Try this. I have seen this before. If what you are saying is this. The printer maps but will not print.
Install the printers locally on lpt port 1 (whatever). Then install with the newest driver that you can get. Do this for each printer. Then remove the printers but don't remove the files if it asks you. Now when the script runs it will map the printers and use the newer drivers. You could update the drivers on the server, but this affects everybody. This is not a good idea if everyone else is working okay. They aren't broke so don't fix them. Just try it on this one pc. When I say policies, I mean local system policies. See you upgraded from NT to 2000. It could have brought over some setting in the registry with it that is enabling some local security policy in 2K. Hence the upgrade causing the problem. -----Original Message----- From: Chris Levis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, September 24, 2002 10:37 AM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: RE: Unable to connect to printer Not. Mappings go fine on problem machine. Can't print. Policies haven't changed since before the upgrade. User logs on to different w/s (Same OS, hardware), prints fine.
