Can't print with user but can with local admin

Hello All,
I'm a Windows admin learning how to support Macs in a 2003 AD environment. Here's my problem. I have a Windows 2003 AD Domain and an office of Mac clients running OSX 10.3.9. I'm using AdmitMac version 1 to connect the Mac's to AD. There's been previous problems with Mac machines dropping from the AD domain. A quick fix of this problem involves re-adding the affected machine back to the AD via the Admitmac utility. A long term fix of this problem will be an upgrade to Admitmac version 3, but that's down the road.
Anyway, when 1 client lost its AD authentication, adding the machine back to the AD caused the local user profile to not be able to print to the shared network printer anymore. Printing works when logged in as the local admin on the Mac, but not as the user. I've tried giving the user admin rights, reconnecting the printer, and re-adding the machine to the domain. All of this has not helped the situation.
Does anyone have any ideas for a possible fix?
Thanks and sorry for the long winded post.

USB printers are a pain.. it might not work at all from windows.. that is just the reality.
USB printers are local printers that plug into your computer.. save your $50.. and the cost of the next couple of sets of ink cartridges or toners and go and buy a network printer. ie one that is designed to work in a network.
If you want to pursue this..
1. How did you name the Express.. and its wireless?
Names should all be short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
2. What printer is it? If you plug it in via USB to the computer does it work?
3. Once you have it working plugged into the computer change it to print to IP of the airport express and see if that works.
You can do this without bonjour..
See this video for example of setting up printing to Extreme (same thing) by printing directly to the TCP/IP port.

It is windows 7 but 8 should be much harder .. naturally MS took away the easy access to everything .. but it is still there for the most part.

  • I can not print from Firefox, but can from all other browsers and applications (such as MS Word, notepad, etc.). I get a print error on the printing monitor like it's a spooling problem.

    This is a recent development but I can not print anything from within Firefox. The print functions open normally, it is going to the correct printer which works..I can print from other browsers and applications. It acts like it is spooling and then a print error occurs and it won't print. I closed and reopened Firefox, opened it in safe mode, cleaned out history/cache/cookies, and rebooted twice. Nothing makes any difference. Also tried printing from the print preview which had the same result. I can print from all other browsers and applications without a problem so it must be within Firefox.

  • Safari 5.1.7, OSX 10.7.4, can't print from Safari but can from other apps

    I recently upgraded the Safari program as well as the recent OSX update.
    I also upgraded Adobe reader from 8.0 to Adobe Reader X and removed Reader 8 by dragging it to the trash.
    Now the Safari print dialog displays "No Printer Selected" and will not allow a printer to be selected. I do get a PDE error that says that the AdobePDFPDE800 bundle isn't working. But I've no clue how to access and delete it.
    The printer is a Ricoh Aficio CL4000DN. PPD's have been reinstalled today.
    The is NO PROBLEM printing from any other application. All Apple aplications other than Safari print as well as applications from other companies.
    any ideas?

    Unless you really need Reader, I suggest you uninstall it according to Adobe's instructions. It's dreadful. If you do need it, ask for help in the Adobe user forums.

  • Cannot videochat with other Ichat 3.0 user but can with Ichat 2.1 user

    My brother recently got a new IMac, and we have been able to do videochatting between the two of us. I have a one-year old IMac running Ichat AV 2.1, while his is brand new and running version 3.0.
    However, when he tries to do a videochat with other people, who have Ichat AV 3.0, he is unable to. This includes our mother, whose computer is also a new IMac.
    His DSL should meet all of the system requirements, so can you think of any reason why it would work when videochatting with us, but not with other people who have the newer computer and software? It seems that, if anything, it should be the other way around.
    Thanks.

  • Can not print PDF file at all with Windows Vista

    I have Acrobat Reader 9.3.2.  I am working off of Windows Vista on my laptop to a network wireless printer (Brother MFC 9440).  I am unable to print pdf files.  About a week ago, we had problems with our printer printing anything.  I had to uninstall it and reinstalled it and it now works fine except the pdf files. I have had no problems printing any other files on any other programs but this one.  I am unsure what specific "updates" I ran while trying to figure out printers issue.  When in Reader, everything seems normal.  When I hit print, the printer box pops up as normal and then I hit ok, my printer icon at bottom pops up for about 5 secs and nothing happens.  I know that I am connected to printer due to all other programs can print.  I do not have access to another printer to see if pdf will print on another printer, but do know that the other two computers used in this office (mac laptop and mac desktop) both are able to print pdf files to this printer without a problem.  I have gone thru all the other help steps to try to resolve the situation:  it still will not print when I hit "print as image", made sure that my printer is marked as network and is default printer, made sure to check that I have all upgrades, etc.  I am not getting any error message, so am unsure what is wrong.  It just will not print.  Is there anyone that could give me some suggestions that I have not tried?  I would REALLY appreciate it! Thanks!

    Another user experience exactly the same issue with vista and printing from Adobe reader.

    The problem was on my Auntys PC, and yes i did updated Adobe Reader to v9.3.2 and still the same issue underlned below.
    My Aunty lives 70 miles away so will not be trying anything else.
    The printer works fine with every other application only Adobe Reader files will print.

  • How can I print and email a report with a logo?

    How can I print and email a report with a logo?
    Is this possible??

    hi ravikant!
    im talking about reports, not forms.
    i bet se78 is for forms and oaer is for report.
    because my logo is displayed on screen, using html-top-of-page.
    but at the time of printing and email, internally, alv grid is converted into alv list, and alv list doesn't support having a logo.
    That's my know-how of the situation.
    Do you have a way with it???
    Please advice.
    Thanks a lot!

  • I am trying to import my cd's onto itunes on a new macbook pro. i can import the cd fine but can not get track names or album art work. after going into advanced it is just coming up with "CDDB information not available"

    i can import the cd fine but can not get track names or album art work. after going into advanced it is just coming up with "CDDB information not available"
    thank you

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

    I can't text a contact but can voice phone them. I don't have the problem with any other contact and the contact is not blocked. I have an iphone5.0 OS 8.1.3. I used to be able to text them with no problem. The only difference I can think is that this problem may have started since I downloaded the OS I am using now

  • Can manually subscribe with Windows but not with Mac

    For some reason I am able to manually subscribe to the below feed just fine with iTunes on my PC (Windows XP) but I get an error when trying with my iMac (OS X 10.5.8):
    *http://feeds.feedburner.com/Metalspeak*
    The error I'm getting with my iMac references "An unknown error occured (400)"
    I was troubleshooting a different feed and am getting similar results: it works fine with the PC, but not with the iMac:
    *http://feeds.feedburner.com/MetalsPeakPodcast*
    The error I'm getting on this feed however states "The file might be corrupted, or a file type that iTunes cannot play"
    Can anyone think of why these feeds work with Windows but not with Mac? Any advice is appreciated!

    The problem lies with the URLs for your media files. The one for the top episode is
    http://www.metalspeak.com/episodes/MetalsPeak 10 - GenresPeak.mp3
    This URL contains spaces, which are not allowed in a URL. Browsers - and from what you say iTunes in Windows - handles this by substituting the code %20 for each space when requesting the file; iTunes for Mac does not.
    You need either to change the filename for each media file, removing the spaces or substituting something such as an underscore, and then amending the feed accordingly: or at the least to amend the feed by replacing each space with %20.
    It's the same problem in the other feed.

  • Can you print from an I pad with a cable?

    Can you print from an I pad with a gable?

    First, AirPrint is not something you buy. It's built into iOS.
    Second, John asked if you could print from an iPad with a cable:
    Can you print from an I pad with a cable?
    Third, in your reply to me, you said "you can" which would imply that one can print from an iPad via a cable, which again cannot be done.

  • HT201320 I am having trouble with my wife's new iPhone 5s. She can receive her telus email but can not send any email what did I do wrong in setting up her account?

    I am having trouble with my wife's new iPhone 5s. She can receive her telus email but can not send any email what did I do wrong in setting up her account on her iPhone? I tried to just copy the info from her old iPhone.

    The sending of email is accomplished via the SMTP server. Take a moment to get back into Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars and select the account. Go to the SMTP server and check to make sure that username and password are entered in all of the appropriate places. If you cannot get it to work after trying to just change those settings, remove the account from the phone and recreate it. When recreating, make sure you enter the username and password in every location, even if the phone says optional. Make sure you have the settings from either the email provider or from the other device. Make sure that SSL is on or off as necessary.
