Limited User Printer Issue

I'm new to this company and have only a decent IT skill set, so I'll
explain this the best as I can.

I've configured three new laptops, one for myself and two for other
users in the company. I have administrator privileges. I installed two
network printers on their computer and test printed successfully. Once
the laptops were passed to the users, they could also print
successfully, that day.

When they log off then back on (presumably at day's end then the next
morning) they cannot print. I can log on/off from my new laptop and
never have printing issues. Seems very likely to be a permission issue
somewhere.

They *can* access the printers properties.

Error messages are as follows:

Selecting Print... they get the dialog box and can view the properties,
then when the Print button is clicked...

"Unable to start print job."

When trying to select the printer properties via the Printers and Faxes
dialog box...

"Printer properties cannot be displayed. The print spooler service is
not running."

I've check the spooler service and it's running on their laptops and
certainly running on the server.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

AJ
 
Re: Limited User Printer Issue

Almost sounds like a connectivity problem, versus a permissions problem.

Have you verified connectivity to the printer at the time that they have the
problem (can you ping the network printer)? At the time of the problem, can
they connect to other network resources?

Re: Limited User Printer Issue


JohnB,

They definitely have connectivity to our network. Plus, one of the users
is connected to the print server via RDP accessing other server resources.

BTW, the default domain of "workgroup" is used here.

Thanks,

AJ

Re: Limited User Printer Issue

Additionally, another reason I think this could be a permission issue is
that I can remove then add the printers back to the user laptops, but
when adding them back I use the servers Admin credentials. It will be
fine for the rest of the day, but when they log back onto their laptops
using their credentials, the issue returns.

Thanks,

AJ

Re: Limited User Printer Issue

Ok, so it's a Workgroup and not a Domain. Don't the users have an account
on the server? Why don't you add the printer with those credentials?
Have you tried setting the printers on the PC's as direct IP printing?

Re: Limited User Printer Issue

Yep, they all have an account on the server. And I've made sure to match
it exactly as it is on the laptop. But I haven't added the printer
with their credentials. Will do that now and let you know.

Not sure what "direct IP printing" is, but will address if necessary.

Thanks,

AJ

Re: Limited User Printer Issue

JOhnB,

Installing the printers from the server using ***their*** credentials
appears to have resolved the issue. Thanks for the input.

Re: Limited User Printer Issue

Congrats

Direct IP printing is, printing directly to a network printer, versus going
through the print server. It involves adding a TCP/IP port, at the time
that you are adding the printer. Here's a page that describes it pretty
well, if you haven't done that before:

Re: Limited User Printer Issue

Actually, I'm going to have to explore this option because the issue is
not resolve. Plus, another user is now having the same issue. Will update.

Re: Limited User Printer Issue

And.... with the direct IP printing, a user's credentials are not an issue.
There are no credentials required.
