Printers not showing in Print Management on Local Server

Fresh Server 2012 R2 VM on Hyper-V setup as a print server only. It allows me to add printers and they show up in the Control Panel in Devices and Printers, but they don't show up in Print Management under server (local). Ports and drivers show up.
If I connect to it from Computer Management on my Windows 7 machine the printers show up.
Any ideas what would be blocking the printers from being viewed?
Thanks,

Did you install KB2995388 as reported in the post from a couple days ago?

Add the machine by IP, does this enumerate the printers properly?

Network Printers not showing in Profile manager?

Does Profile Mangager in Lion Server show network printers? I can get USB printers to appear, but the network printers that I have mapped in the Printers & Faxes system pref don't appear? Is there something that needs to be done to make them appear? For now, I'm using Workgroup Manager to push printers, but it would be nice if I could use Profile Manager.
The network printers are shared out so they can be used with a program called AirPrint Activator for iPad printing.

I'm on Mountain Lion Server, and had the same issue; restarting Profile Manager made the printers appear, although maybe I just needed to wait longer.

Printers disappear from Print Management on the server itself

I have a server 2012 r2 print server. A short time ago all the printers disappeared from the print management view on the server itself. They are still showing in the ports view, I can still add a printer, and people can still print (though I
am getting many complaints that printing has become slow, not sure if that is related or not.) Any suggestions or ideas on what might be causing this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Tax Condition ZSRT not showing in Print Preview and Tax Register

Dear Friends
while we making Purchase Order the Tax condition not showing while print preview. also not showing in Tax Register.
Tax Register we developed.
any hops
Rajesh G

Dear,
ZSRT is a customised condition which you have created. So to bring that condition in print preview you have to talk to your ABAPER , so that he can incorporate this condition type to his customised print preview program. If your tax register is also customised then again you have to communicate to the ABAPER.

IPhone 4s not showing up in manage devices

My wife's iPhone 4s shows up in the side bar of iTunes and sincs fine, but does not show up in Manage devices on her account, where as her iPad does. it clearly shows you how to remove devices, but how can we add one?

"Manage Devices" appears under the broad heading "iTunes in the Cloud". I suggest you (or she) do this on her iPhone 4S:
Go to Settings > iCloud and make sure she is signed on there with her Apple ID.

EWA report is not showing in solution manager 7.1 SPS10

Hi Experts,
I have configured EWA in solution manager 7.1 SPS10 as per guides and best practices and managed system is showing perfectly for MOPZ configuration, RFC's are working fine but the Background job SM:EXEC_SERVICES completes in a few seconds with job log content showing the error
Alerts for system DEV in solution 'Development systems' cannot be sent (denied by customer)
The EWA alert is generating successfully in managed system and available at service market place but it is not showing in solution manager because of the above mentioned error
Please let me know any solution for this problem.
Thanks,
Bharat.

Bharat,
Note 1907383 - How to setup and troubleshoot EarlyWatch Alert reports in SAP Solution Manager 7.1 should have most of the answers related to EWA
Also Make sure you add the system to active solution by using "Put in Solution".
"Alerts for system DEV in solution 'Development systems' cannot be sent (denied by customer)" this msg is for sending alert to SAP. check if note 1925658 is implemented and also note 1984512.

Why does my iPad not show up in manage storage?

Why does my iPad not show up in manage storage?

Don't understand your question - "manage storage"? What are you trying to do? Are you trying to connect to your computer? Are you trying to free up some storage space?

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

Printers are not visible in Print management

Installed print server feature in Windows server 2012 .We have added few printers in server, but these printers are not visible in printers section of Print management console.Even the default Microsoft XPS writer is not showing up.
Restarted Spooler service and reinstalled print management console.Server DNS record looks good too.
Able to view the printers in "Device and printers" .They are not visible only in print management console.
Thanks

Hi Daemon_Joker,
Please check if some necessary updates need to be installed. Please run
sfc /scannow command to scan all protected system files.
Meanwhile, please use
Get-Printer PowerShell cmdlet retrieves a list of printers installed on the computer. Did all printers display correctly?
In addition, please open Print Management, click Printer Servers, expand
your printer server, then right click Printers and select “Add Printer…”. Please check if you will be able to find printers via this wizard.
If anything I misunderstand or any update, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
Hope this helps.

Printers not showing up on leopard managed machine

I'm trying to use WGM to set up specific printers to show up for specific machines and users and no matter whenever i specify which printers to have added to the managed machine / users the printers don't show up. Am i missing something?
Thanks.

I have seen this, too. Keep in mind one thing:
Are you SURE the Mac cant see the printers? I have noticed that sometimes CUPS still sees the printers but the Apple GUI tools like the Print & Fax pref pane cant see the printers.
As a test do these things and reply back:
1) Open an app and print a file. Do you see printers under the "printer" menu?
nope
2) Type this command on the client:
"lpstat -t"
See any printers?
nope
3) Look in this folder on the managed client:
~/Library/Printers
What do you see?
nothing
4) Open a browser and go here on the managed client:
http://localhost:631/printers/
What do you see?
nothing
Questions:
1) Are the printers just stand-alone network printers without a print server (are you printing direct to them or going through a print server)? If you print direct, what are the protocols you are using? LPR? AppleTalk? IPP?
Yes they are just standalone HP printers and they support LPR and IPP, i've tried both and neither work
2) If you DO have print servers, what protocols are the queues hosted with? IPP? LPR? SMB? What OS is the printer server running? OS X? Windows? Linux?
I have followed the documentation on how to put those printers into leopards printer and fax pane and enabled printer pools in server admin. i then try to add using WGM those printers and they don't show up.
3) Is Bonjour involved in any way?
nope
4) Is your OD server and the clients all running 10.5 (Leopard)?
yes
5) Are other policies working OK?
yep all except the printer ones.

Printers not showing up in Add Printers / Network module - No printers found

Hello All,
I have tried a few different recommended fixes to no avail. When simply going to Devices and Printers, Add Printer, then Network.... no printers are found, until you click the The Printer isn't listed and find under the directory, they are all seen.
Nothing has changed with the server itself and everything seems to be in order. This is a problem since I'll be rolling a bunch of new larger MFD printers in the coming weeks. I will mention, and not sure if the timing is just coincidence,
but I did install the NFS file service to the server, then promptly removed it, and this seemed to happen around that time. Any help/lead would be appreciated.
Below are the items I have tried.
Removed/Relisted all printers in Printer Management
Confirmed the printer permissions as correct
Confirmed the printers are shared and visible when browsing to the printer server via UNC path
Printers are visible in the Default Naming Context for that server within ADSIedit
Network Discovery (for domain users) is enabled IN and OUT on the printer server as well as on any client machine trying to find/add one of these printers
Event View or the Role events show NO errors for that particular service
The SSDP service is running
Using local gpedit, published the printers manually (can only be seen from the print server itself and no other client, but also doesn't show name or location of the printer)

Hi JS1980,
Sorry for my interrupting. Just confirm something more.
Based on your description, did you mean that you can connect those printers and use them as normal, when find
printers via feature “Find a printer in the directory, based on location or feature”? Meanwhile, if logged on with an administrator account, will encounter the same issue?
In addition, I know that you didn’t suspect it’s related to group policy settings. Just for a confirmation,
would you please use
Gpresult command to check? Or you can send the result to
OneDrive then post the link here. (Please hide or remove private and protected information)
Meanwhile, there seems has a similar thread. Please refer to and check if can help you.
