Windows 7 Enterprise - Cannot Print - Access Denied

Hello Guys,
I have strange issues..i just created a new Windows 7 Image. Even if i'am connected with Local Admin or Domain users, i cannot print to any printers.
When i want to print a test page, i receive the following error message " Print Test page failed, would you like to open troubleshooter?
Access Denied".
I have this message for network printer or Local Printer.
When i want to print from Office, i receive the following message " Printer Setup Configuration error...".
There is nothing on C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Printers.
Help !
THanks,
Laurent

Hi LoLe,
"i just created a new Windows 7 Image"
First of all ,I would suggest you to install all the updates for the new machine.Please also run "sfc /scannow"to check the health of the system .
"When i want to print from Office, i receive the following message "
Have you tried to print from other programs for example the Internet Explorer ?
"Access denied "
We can try to enable the built-in administrator account to have a check .If there is a antivirus software installed ,please turn them off temporarily to have a check .Please also check the status of "Printer Spooler" serivce and ensure it is running.
To enable the built-in administrator account (This is used to troubleshoot ,it is recommended to keep it disabled):
net user administrator /active:yes
net user administrator /active:no

  • Windows Server 2008 r2 printer access denied.

    i have a windows server 2008 r2 PC with a printer installed and shared on it. when trying to access the printer from any other PC in the network i get "windows cannot connect to the printer. access is denied" this is from both a windows 7 and
    windows 8 PC.

    Helped me to set Security permissions on system with printer (Win 2008) of folder "C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers" for group NETWORK to "Full control".

  • 2008 R2 printer server, cannot connect to printer, access denied, Windows 7 OS only

    Deployed new Windows 2008 R2 domain controller, added print and document controll. Added several network printers on R2 server. We currently have mostly Vista biz clients but half a dozen W7Pro clients also. The Vista clients connect to these new network
    printers, no problem but none of the W7 clients will connect. I select the printer from the drop down directory list and select to load the drivers, the system starts loading drivers and then right before it finishes it stops with error message, "Windows cannot
    connect to the printer. Access denied. Again, this happens only with the W7 clients on our domain, Vista works fine.

    By default, the security settings for Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 allow users who are not members of the local
    Administrators group to install only trustworthy printer drivers, such as those provided with Windows or in digitally signed printer-driver packages. You may want to install printer-driver packages on the print server
    or in the clients. More details can be found this page: Cannot

  • EPrint Enterprise: cannot print Office attachments

    Hello, We are currently testing the ePrint Enterprise 4.1 solution, with the goal of using the print-to-mail feature. The server and all necessary config has been done, and it mostly works fine: I can send an email to the configured email address, it will print the email body and .PDF or .JPG attachment just fine. Now to my problem: I am unable to print any Office attachment. I have followed the install guide rigorously, as well as the troubleshooting guide, I took all steps but I am still unable to print Office files, even from the "Submission Test" menu on the Server and selecting one of the Office attachments. Server is a Windows 2012 R2 64bits with Office 2013 64bits installed before ePrint Enterprise. OS and Office is properly activated. All DCOM components are properly installed. The Compatibility Checker when starting ePrint Enterprise installer gives a green mark for "Office".  Here's the error I get everytime an Office attachment is submitted for printing:  When trying to call support hotline, I always end up on technicians that have never heard of ePrint Enterprise...hopefully some knowledgeable people are active on this forum! Thank you very much in advance for your help. Best regards

  • Windows 2008 R2 intermittently getting access denied when logging in

    Hi, 
    I recently built 2 new Virtual Machines. They both run on Hyper-V (version 6.2x).
    One is Windows 2008 R2 standard and the other Windows 2008 R2 Datacenter. These are both remote desktop servers. 
    These are both connected to a domain. 
    The domain controller is linux/samba based, this will mimic the Windows NT4 style domain controller environment. 
    Within each Virtual Machine I have a remote desktop users group, that is a staff group. 
    Intermittently users get an access denied error when logging on. This only happens when logging on as domain users. 
    If this happened all the time, I might think the machine needed to be removed and re-added to the domain but as it's intermittent, I don't see the trust relationship as the problem. 
    Any ideas? 
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Thanks for your post in Windows Server Forum.
    Before providing you some information, I would like to get some more information to resolve your issue.
    - Have you notice any specific error when trying to remote login?
    - Did you check GPO setting option “Allow log on through Remote Desktop Services”
    As group policy and the user group are interrelated with each other. There are 2 types of user rights.
    (1)   Logon rights  (2) Privileges
    These two plays an important part in allowing an RDP session to the server. Also need to check in GPO Setting for more option.
    a. Allow log on through Remote Desktop Services : Users\Group must be added for Remote Session
    b. Deny log on through Remote Desktop Services : Users\Group must not be added for Remote Session
    For checking the setting in GPO follow below path:
    - Start > Run >gpedit.msc
    - Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\User Rights Assignment
    For more information, refer beneath article.
    “Allow Logon through Terminal Services (Remote Desktop Services)” group policy and “Remote Desktop Users” group.
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2011/09/09/allow-logon-through-terminal-services-group-policy-and-remote-desktop-users-group.aspx

  • Windows 7 time sync returns Access Denied error

    I have recently configured my AD PDC Windows 2008 Server to syncronize with time.windows.com.  I am trying to get my AD Windows 7 Pro clients to sync with the server, however anytime I run w32tm /resync, net stop w32tm or net start w32tm I get an
    Access Denied error on the client.  I have tried it logged in as both the domain admin and the local admin.  For some reason I can start and stop the W32 Time Service from the Services console, but it doesn't resync the time when it restarts.  Why
    am I being denied access when logged in as the domain administrator?  

    Hi,
    Did you set any group policy to prevent client from changing the services?
    I suggest you take the ownership of %WINDIR%\System32\W32TM.EXE, disable the security software and firewall on both side to check the result. Also re-configure the
    group policy related to Windows Time Service and re-apply them.
    In addition, I suggest contacting Server Forum to confirm with the issue.

  • Windows Service Enterprise Library Data Access Application Blocks Connection Pooling Issue

    Hello,
    We are developing a windows service using c# .net v 4.5.1 which communicates with SQL database (SQL 2008 R2 x64), communication with SQL server is done using Enterprise Library data access block v 6, The windows service does a file copy process in bulk &
    updates the database about the status of file copy, it is observed that as soon as we start the service the number of connections get max out & we start receiving a "Timeout expired.  The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection
    from the pool.  This may have occurred because all pooled connections were in use and max pool size was reached."
    This issue is only observed when we run the code logic by deploying it as a windows service, When we run the exactly same code as a standalone exe (right click -> run as administrator) / non windows service, the connections on database are not exceeded
    & we do not receive the above mentioned error.
    The code block which makes calls to the database is under the c# "using" statement, hence connection pooling should be handled by default.
    Could you please recommend any suggestions on areas which I might have missed on to investigate this issue.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Laserjet 5000 with windows 7 driver cannot print multiple copies unless disabling mopier

    Customer has Laserjet 5000 that they have been using for approx 5 years. It is connected to one computer with the standard parallel cable and the driver is using lpt1. It is used mainly to print word documents and a multi page publisher document. The computer used to be a windows xp computer and all  worked  well with the PCL6 driver and that is the only driver that was used
     They just bought a new Windows 7 32 bit computer and now it has lost some of the functionality.
    The first driver that was loaded was the driver that Windows 7 used after you use the windows update button that you get during the add printer wizard. I think it was the pcl 5 driver as that is the driver that the computer will install if you remove the printer and then restart the computer. Using this driver, when you choose to print more than one page or multiple copies, it will just print the first page or copy and there will not be any errors displayed.
    I have since downloaded the PCL6 driver, PS driver and PCL5 driver from HP's website and tried all of them.
    The PS driver will print more than one page, but when it gets to about the 4th page the printer prints out an error page. The error is PCL XL error, Subsystem: Kernel, Error: Unsupported protocol, Operator 0x0, Position:0
    The PCl 6 driver will print the same error page and not print any print jobs, even if it is just a single page, single copy job.
    The pcl 5 driver prints one page and then stops printing, no errors.
    When I disable the mopier under device settings, the pcl5 driver will print everything just fine. Only problem is, it will not collate. The collate checkbox is available and checked when we try the multiple page multiple copy publisher document, but it just prints out as if we do not have collate checked. If we could get collation to work, than we are good to go.
    I have not tried the PS driver with the mopier disabled.
    The PCL6 driver stills returns the pcl xl error with the mopier disabled.
    The printer does not have any extra memory, just the 4 mb standard that came with the printer. I am wondering if this is a memory issue triggered by Windows 7and I just need to get more memory for the printer. (Computer has 4 gb of memory)
    Anybody else have a similar issue and got theirs fixed?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi jnickelsen,
    I understand the printer won't print multiple copies.
    Thank you for your reply.
    I will be happy to help you with this.
    This printer doesn't have the Mopier settings.
    What drivers are you using?
    Did you download the drivers or are you using the Windows preinstalled drivers?
    If you are using the Windows preinstalled drivers then I would download the latest drivers. Here is the URL for the HP LaserJet Full Feature Software and Driver.
    I would download and run the Print and Scan Doctor since it might resolve the issue automatically.

    Hope this helps.

  • Access denied when creating GPO

  • Windows 8 Enterprise automaticly updated to Windows 8.1 pro

    Hi all,
    My company computer at my home location is running windows 8 enterprise.
    yesterday i came home and there was a message in the screen asking for a reboot.
    the reboot was needed for the update to 8.1  it sayd.
    when the computer was rebooted several times, it suddenly asked me for a Licence key, this while there is a corporate licence.
    then i checked the windows vertion and it is windows 8.1 pro now.
    can anyone tell me what the hell happened and how i can revert this?
    Kind regards.

    Hi,
    This is not possible. Windows 8.1 upgrades are available in the Windows Store or on media. However, when you upgrade to Windows 8.1 from the Windows Store, you cannot change editions. Upgrading to a different edition of Windows 8.1 is supported from media
    only.
    Volume license version of Windows 8 Enterprise cannot be upgraded from the Windows Store. You must use media to upgrade these editions.
    It would be helpful for us to do further troubleshooting if you could help to collect the following information:
    Did you mean the Windows Editions you are running in the Company and at home were not same?
    If yes, I think the edition when you were facing that ask to update to Windows 8.1 should not be the Windows 8 Enterprise.
    Use your antivirus scan the whole computer and then double the version of the current system: right click Computer ->Properties ->under Windows Edition section, check the current edition.
    Contact your IT admin to make if they push the related updates.

  • Access Denied when saving in Vista

    Hello everyone,
    On some occasions, when I'm editing my website and saving a CSS file a message popups saying access to the file is denied. If I try to delete or rename the file with Windows Explorer it also says access denied. It seems the file is locked because I cant open it in any program, delete it or rename it.
    After about 10 minutes, the file is back to normal. Im on Windows Vista, with Dw Cs4 and I use Firefox to test my website.
    I've tried to take permission of the folder and Dreamweaver isnt saving using a temp file. Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks

    This is a "feature" of Vista's security system. The solution is in the reply from Badcrew in the following page: http://thevistaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=13343.
    How did I find the answer? By typing access denied vista into the Search Forums field at the top right of this page. The search system in this forum is quite powerful, so it's always worth trying.
