Hi all,
So I have a client with a SBS 2003 network. The have one new HP desktop
that is win7 x64. When you click the add printer wizard it does not see
any of the networked printers installed on the SBS server. The SDDP
discovery service is started on the desktop.
My laptop is a thinkpad with Win& x64 and it is simply authenticated by
me manually to the network ( ie not a domain member), but I can see and
add any of the network printers.
It took me thirty seconds to add a printer to my notebook. I'd like it
to be that easy with any new Win 7 machines they purchase. What would
cause the auto discovery to fail? Also, thought it was weird that when I
tried to manually add an HP printer, the HP desktop didn't offer a
compatible driver, but my thinkpad had a PCL 5e driver available.
Thanks for any help.
