Maybe trace it with Wireshark or some other sniffer?

What type of printers are you mapping to, my specific one was a Dell 1815, just the print driver. The latest print driver and firmware took care of it for us, but I had to delete all the drivers from the Vista machine first and then map it manually before it worked. XP machines no problems at all. You will see your print spooler stopped, start it up its fine, and then when you goto print or look at properties it will usually crash the spooler.

GuidoElia HELPPC ________________________________ Da: Steve Moffat [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Per conto di NTSysAdmin Inviato: venerdì 25 gennaio 2008 13.53 A: NT System Admin Issues Oggetto: Vista weirdness One of my sites has a weird issue with 3 Vista Business machines and printers. When browsing the network to find printers, they see none. When browsing AD they see the printers, but cannot connect. It's an SBS 2003 domain. All pc's are Domain members. They have no issues with anything else. They have 6 identical pc's, all bought from the same vendor at the same time, the other 3 are fine. They also have 6 XP machines. No issues with them at all. Anyone seen this before? Thanks Steve *** The information in this e-mail is confidential and intended solely for the individual or entity to whom it is addressed.
