Branch Office Direct Print (Server 2012+W8) Discrete Drivers does not function

All of the print drivers support CSR and are unique to the devices (no UPDs used). BODP setting is set to True and "Render Print Jobs on client computers" is checked. "Hold Mismatch documents & Keep printed documents" are not checked.
When I shut down the print spooler on the server, the printers on the W8 clients all go offline. When I print to the W8 print queues, I see them go through the server (paused, then released).
Do I need to check the "Print directly to the printer" setting under advanced on all of the queues on the server as well?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

  • Branch Office Direct Printing - server offline?

    Hi All,
    We are implementing Branch Office Direct Printing and I have a question about when the server is down or, in the case of a WAN connection to/from the branch going down, the client being unable to reach the server.
    I could have sworn I originally read about Windows 8/2012 being smart enough to send the print job straight from the client to the printer in cases where it can't talk to the server, but now I seem unable to locate that information.  Is that indeed
    the case (hopefully)?
    Thanks,
    Wes

    Branch Office Direct Printing may benefit your organization in the following ways:
    Client      computers running Windows Server 2012 obtain printer information from the      print server, but send the
    print jobs directly to the printer. The print      data no longer travels to the central server and then back to the branch      office printer.
    The      printer information is cached in the branch office, so that if the print      server is unavailable for some
    reason (for example if the WAN link to the      data center is down), then it is still possible for the user to print.
    The      client computer renders the print job before sending it to the printer.      The major difference between Branch Office Direct
    Printing and Client-Side      Rendering (CSR) is that Branch Office Direct Printing does not send the      print job to the server. Instead the job is sent directly to the printer,      resulting
    in a significant reduction in network bandwidth usage when the      printers are centrally managed.

    but still its stays same error message
    can some one please suggest on next steps
    Thanks

    Hi sai sudeep,
    I know that you have downloaded the SQL Server 2012, but it wasn’t successful because the entire application contains more files and folders and not just three files (setup.exe, .box files). So, as Alberto Morillo said, you could download an ISO file for installing.
    Please pay attention to that a Service Pack 1 or higher is required on windows 7 for installing the SQL Server 2012.
    please refer to:
    Download Windows 7 Service Pack 1:

  • Windows Server Print Server 2012 R2 MP Not Alerting on Unhealthy Printers

    I just spun up a 2012 R2 print server, added some printers (both healthy and unhealthy), installed the SCOM 2012 R2 agent and installed the Windows Server Print Server 2012 R2 MP (all in a test environment). I wanted to demonstrate the value add of this
    MP and I made the assumption that we could alert on unhealthy printers, but I'm not seeing any alerts. I have 7 printers total; 1 is offline, 1 has low toner and 1 is out of paper.  I would think that at least one of them should generate an alert
    based on the performance monitors present and enabled in the MP.
    I checked the MP guide but can't find any answers.  Does anyone out there have any tips or suggestions for getting printer queue alerts working in the new Print Server 2012 R2 MP?
    Regards,
    TsunamiSteve

    Thank you for your quick reply.
    Yes, the printers were discovered by the management pack but all appear healthy even though a few definitely aren't per the Print Management console.  I checked the print server for events associated with unhealthy printers but either there aren't any
    or we don't have logging turned up high enough for that.  The management pack guide refers to this appendix (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd206713.aspx) and I've looked
    for the Run Monitoring Rule to edit the script but I think this is a reference to an earlier version of the MP and/or a 2003 print server.
    It appears all the pieces to accomplish this are present and that I'm just missing a configuration in the MP (hopefully just an override that has eluded me).  Any further insight would be greatly appreciated.

  • Print with  write statements from webynpro does not trigger top-of-page

    Print launched from webdynpro application via application server created with write statements does not trigger top-of-page event. When print is done from sapgui it works ok. The idea is to reuse backend print which was created for sapgui with abap list made application log in webdynpro application.

  • Remove Server function in the Netscape Console does not function

    Remove Server Instance does not function or not accessible. Am trying to remove a server from the console (Netscape Console 4.1) unfortunately i cannot access this specific functionality. Already tried re-installing but it does'nt function

    It is probably because the server you're trying to remove is the Directory Server containing the Configuration Information for the Admin (ie suffix o=NetscapeRoot).
    Trying to remove this specific instance of the Directory Server is like cutting the branch where you're sitting.

  • Printing only odd/even numbered pages does not work

    I've got following problem: Printing only odd/even numbered pages does not work. Not in Preview, nor Adobe Reader. I Don't know why. i'm using a hp Color LaserJet 2550L. I just worked fine, but I cannot remember the time this failing first occured. I really hope the problem will be solved quick and easy.
    Thanks so far
    Bastian.

    Mine does not work either. I have trashed prefs, rewrote permissions, ran Disk Utility from a separate HD, etc. and I cannot get this feature to work.
    I got 45 odd pages to print last night and now it won't print odd or even pages. I am reduced to printing every backside page one at a time. If I would have known about this problem before I could have saved myself an hour and just printed them all on single sided sheets. I tried to save paper and now I'm screwed (timewise)......
    Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank You,

  • The list of workflow actions on the server references an assembly that does not exist

    Hi,
    This issue has been discussed many times in this forum , the reason why I am posting is I tried the resolution steps but I dont see any luck.
    I am getting the below message from the SharePoint designer 2007 when I am trying to modify a workflow
    "This list of workflow actions on the server references an assembly that does not exist. Some actions will not be available. The assembly strong name is Microsoft.SharePoint.WorkflowActions, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c.
    Contact your server administrator for more information."
    #1 : One of the post says "Normally you would see that error because someone has extended the Workflow actions available in SPD with a custom action developed in Visual Studio.  These custom actions are loaded when your workstation reads the WSS.ACTIONS
    file on the server.  The file is located in the 12 hive under Template\1033\workflow.  Your WSS.Actions file contains a reference to a custom action .dll which is not available on the server."
    I opened the WSS.Actions file in notepad, I dont see any line with *.dll in it. Am I missing something?
    #2: Another post says "The solution I discovered was that the server running my SharePoint Services was not up to .NET 3.0.  As soon as I updated to .NET 3.0 everything worked.I had made sure the machine running SharePoint Designer was updated, but
    had missed the SHarePoint Services server."
    The server is already updated to .Net 3.0.
    #3: I went to the %System Drive%\Documents and Settings\Local Settings\ApplicationData\Microsoft\SharePointDesigner.
    Deleted the ProxyAssemblyCache folder but no luck.
    Just checking if any one was able to resolve this issue by following any of the solution other than the above mentioned ones.
    Thanks,
    Cutloo

        I have the similar issue with my custom work flow. I have searched the whole day for the solution but no success, then at last a simple track works for me. Please try this if any one faces such issue.
    Basically the assembly that we have define in the ACTIONS file dose not exists on the server, because of two reasons, either we have given the wrong assembly name (in our case the namespace name inside our solution) or the PublicKeyToken may differ from the
    original assembly, that are deployed in GAC.
        So cross check both of these, in my case the assembly name was fine,
     <Action
        Name="Move Item to Another List and Send Email"
        ClassName="MyAssemblyName.Classname"
        Assembly="MyAssemblyName,Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=4053d1fde8a1c781"
        AppliesTo="all"
        Category="Email actions">
    But the problem was in the 'PublicKeyToken', so i double click on the feature inside my solution,then in the bottom i have clicked on the manifest tab to check the entries.
    <Feature xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/" Title="MyAssemblyName Feature1" Id="f7f1bda0-5f65-40f1-a705-f6f15a41da3a" ReceiverAssembly="MyAssemblyName, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=0c32dbb769ed64b5"
    ReceiverClass="MyAssemblyName.Features.Feature1.Feature1EventReceiver" Scope="WebApplication"></Feature>
    Here i got the actual PublicKeyToken for my assembly (0c32dbb769ed64b5), i have replaced this number inside ACTIONS file, deploy the soultion, reset IIS.
    It works for me,

  • Printing from Word 2008 to PDF does not preserve hyperlinks

    Hi,
    I have discovered that when I print a Word 2008 (ver. 12.2.4) document to PDF format using Mac OS X version 10.6.2, some of the hyperlinks are lost.
    Links where the hyperlink address is visible in the document are preserved, while all others are lost. Interestingly, the PDF shows the text with the hyperlink as if it still has a hyperlink, but the link does not function. I have posted an illustration:
    - original Word document (zipped): http://people.trentu.ca/~rloney/files/hyperlinktestword-to-PDF.zip
    - converted PDF document: http://people.trentu.ca/~rloney/files/hyperlinktestword-to-PDF.pdf
    I've tested this with both .doc and .docx formats and there is no effect, nor does it matter whether I print as PDF using Mac OS X, or convert the Word file to PDF using Adobe Acrobat ver. 9.3. I have run the same test with Apple's TextEdit and all links are preserved, so this appears to be specific to Word on the Mac.
    Has anyone had any experience with this? Any work around?
    I will try to find a place I can report this to Microsoft as a bug.
    Thank you,
    Rob

    I think in your situation it would be worth trying the things listed under the event. It does have to do with FRS and it's easy to do. I've used it to fix journal errors after a server unexpectedly restarts and sysvol stops replicating.  I
    could see where it could fix your issue, and if it doesn't, you're out 5 minutes. :)
    The listed registry key does not exist
    Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. 
    Click down the key path: 
       "System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NtFrs\Parameters" 
    Double click on the value name

    You have to update AA XI to work with AA 2013. You may also have to open the OFFICE tools and enable the add-ons. There is no tool in some of the OFFICE applications. You can check the list in the PDF Maker folder in Acrobat.

    Hi @kots 
    I suspect your question would be better answered in the HP Enterprise Business Community, as your HP Printer is a commercial model.
    My technical expertise is with consumer products and software, I am sure the commercial folks would be happy to help if you re-post your question for them to answer. The HP Enterprise Business Community is an HP Forum designed for the Commercial and Enterprise customers to help one another. I am sure you will find some HP folks there to help too.
    Click here to view the Printing and Digital Imaging. When the page opens you will see the option to 'Log in' or 'Register Now' on the right. The commercial forums are separate from the consumer boards, thus you will need to register if you don't already have a commercial account.
    You may find the HP LaserJet M2727 Multifunction Printer series page helpful while you wait for somebody in the commercial Forum to respond to your inquiry.
    Best of luck.

    When I add a quicktime asset directly to my DVD SP project it does not automatically encode to be DVD cmpliant. Says incompatible asset. Any ideas?

    You use the term "QuickTime Asset" like it means something.  QuickTime is just a container ... a QuickTime file could be made from any number of codecs, many of which are not compatible with DVD Studio Pro.
    What codec is the file you're trying to import?  Have you considered using Compressor to encode it to the proper format?
