Glad you got it sorted. FWIW, 7 has its issues too :) From: Joseph L. Casale [mailto:jcas...@activenetwerx.com] Sent: Thursday, 16 December 2010 2:56 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Vista Printing and GPP
James, I have tried (based on Google/technet forum searches) enabling it in user and computer sections (I understand Win7 moved P&P from user to Computer) and disabling it altogether. Disabling it finally worked, so long as you "Created" and did not "Replace" it, so much for housekeeping... Fsck, I hate Vista:( I used XP until 7 came out and just skipped it altogether for my own wkst's.

Casale [mailto:jcas...@activenetwerx.com] Sent: Wednesday, 15 December 2010 8:47 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Vista Printing and GPP So this gets sillier, a fresh vista machine w/o the driver installed can browse to the server and double click the printer and it installs fine. Using GPP's, it wont, it hangs the login? Any ideas? Thanks, jlc From: James Hill [mailto:james.h...@superamart.com.au] Sent: Monday, December 13, 2010 3:15 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Vista Printing and GPP Never heard of that requirement(on the server). So once the driver is installed it works ok? If so then you could certainly use a script as you mentioned. Or possibly even add them to your SOE/MOE at the start. From: Joseph L.

Oddly enough, one pss agent said the Point and Print Restrictions policy needs to be applied on the print server itself? Was such a long a tiring case.

Are the Win7 & Vista machines getting the same Group Policies applied, in particular the Point and Print Restrictions policy? From: Joseph L. Casale [mailto:jcas...@activenetwerx.com] Sent: Tuesday, 14 December 2010 5:06 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Vista Printing and GPP Speaking of printing, I have a mix of XP/Vista/Win7 clients and use GPP's to setup printers for them. The XP and Win7 machines work well with the non-packaged drivers, but Vista does all kinds of things from plain not installing some to hanging at login for others. I was thinking about creating a startup script with a `rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /ia` command to get the driver installed, seem like the best approach? This is for the PCL6 drivers for a Ricoh MP 6001 and 2060 SP.
