Windows 7 Professional using a Windows 2003 print server to map printers

I am testing Win 7 in our network, I can install a network printer (HP Laserjet 3700 64bit driver) directly to the computer via TCP/IP. If I install the same driver on the 2003 R2 server (by adding the driver under sharing and additional drivers) it will not work, I get an Operation Failed with error 0x00000bcb.
Win 7 will be useless if I cannot connect it to the network for printing using a print server.
Thank you in advance,
Bill

SCENARIO:
Print Server
Windows Server
2003
R2, station
Windows
7 with
64-bit
and
HP LaserJet
P4015n
PROBLEM:
Windows
7 64-bit
stations
can not add
HP
LaserJet P4015n from
print server
Windows Server
2003
R2 showing the
error

SOLUTION:
In the
print server,
delete
the registry key
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Printers\[PrinterName]\CopyFiles\BIDI"
CAUSE: The station of user
was trying to
access a

operating systems
do not recognize
as valid:
"spool\drivers\w32x86\3".
This
path is

  • Is is possible to add Windows 6 64-bit drivers to a Windows 2003 print server?

    We are having some trouble figuring a way in which to support network printing for Windows 7 64-bit machines that we are starting to intermittently put out in what, as of this moment, is still primarily a native XP 32-bit environment.  Our concern has been that, if we replace the drivers on the print server to the Windows 7 64-bit drivers, then the XP machines will then pull down those drivers and then not be able to print any longer.  According to Microsoft, the way around this is to utilize the "Additional Drivers" area within the properites of the printer.  From there, in theory, you can add a new driver that uses "x64" as the print processor.  However, when we attempted to do this on our legacy Windows 2003 print server (which I believe to be 32-bit) we noticed that, in the "version area" of the selection for the x64 print processor, Windows 7 is not listed.  We then receive the following error message after we attempt to go forward and add the driver. . .
    -Selected printer driver not found
    The specified location does not contain the driver HP LaserJet 4050 Series PCL6 for the requested processor architecture
    It looks to me that the problem is in that the server is Windows 2003 and we are attempting to make Windows 7 drivers work within that framework.  Can someone please confirm this suspician or instruct us further?
    Thanks,
    -Brian McKnight

    Gotcha!!
    I am done with mounting a secondary HDD (thanks to ifixit) and installing Windows 8 Pro 64 bit on it without a worry. Charm, charm!!
    Boot Camp 5 guide prescribes all needed steps and when read and used correctly, installation must be an easy task. And all the existing apple hardwares work so good in the Windows environment too.
    I am going to help out a friend of mine in doing a similar thing on his mac too. If you got specific questions, please do shoot up here and i should be able to get a reply to it (if at all).
    Thanks everyone.

  • Problems printing via AppleTalk with a Windows 2003 print server

    My company is migrating from Windows 2000 Server over to Windows 2003, which is going to be the new acting print queue.
    We have a mix of old and new printers (most of them HP), and our Macs have been printing to the printers via AppleTalk. With the new print server, we could not easily find the printers on the network since AppleTalk was not turned on. However, once AppleTalk was turned on, it was easy to find and add the printers. We are good so far. Before hand, I tried to add the printers via an SMB connection, but kept having problems with NT Authentication errors.
    I tried printing a test page to the newly added printer, and it came back with this error:
    %%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: languagelevel ]%%
    %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
    This is about the best reference I've found so far which relates to this problem:
    http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1167812&page=1
    Most of the other suggestions I've dug up so far refer to updating firmware or drivers, but I don't think that is the problem. The drivers on the old W2K print server and the new W2k3 server are the same, so it is my opinion that something on the new print server isn't turned on or isn't installed yet.
    Any ideas on what the issue is here?

    "Supposedly" the same exact drivers were installed for the printer -- the same driver that was used on the old print server. Might something else need to be installed?
    I've found a few other cases where people are having the same error:
    http://www.macfixitforums.com/showflat.php?Board=Forum39&Number=732031
    Below is the error that is printed when I print a test page from http://localhost:631
    SYSTEM Test Page
    %%[Error: syntaxerror; OffendingCommand: --nostringval-- ]%%
    %%[Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored]%%
    Below is the error that is printed when I try to print a document (I've tried Safari, Preview, and TextEdit).

  • When I try to print using Windows 2008 print server I have to use the generic print drivers supplied. If I use the OEM driver the printer locks up. I have tried a HP 4 plus and a Canon Copier.

    When I try to print using Windows 2008 print server I have to use the generic print drivers supplied. If I use the OEM driver the printer locks up. I have tried a HP 4 plus and a Canon Copier.

    A number of vendor drivers written for OS X cannot be used when connecting via SMB to a printer that is shared by Windows. This is due to limitations of the driver.
    In some cases, if you were to enable the LPD Print Service in Windows, you can connect to the share using the same syntax as SMB but on the Mac you would use the LPD as the protocol.
    If you can reply with the brand and model of printer you have then we may be able to provide more information.

  • Locked files using a Windows 2003 File Server with Mac 10.6 clients running CS5

    We migrated 40 Mac users from OS X 10.5/CS3 to OS X 10.6/CS5 back in November. Our InDesign files are kept on a Windows 2003 file server.
    We have had fairly constant complaints of InDesign and Photoshop files being reported as locked when users try to save their work back to the server. This did not occur as frequently with CS3.
    Has anyone else had this issue?

  • CA and Certificate Issue in ACS 4.0 For Windows 2003 Enterprise Server

    Hi,
    I have configured Microsoft CA server on the same ACS 4.0 for Windows 2003 enterprise server which was configured earlier using the self generated certificates for EAP and PEAP authentications.
    After I change the certificate from self generated to the new CA certificate that can be viewed under install ACS certificate option on ACS server but having the following problems
    1. SSL is not functioning while internet browser access to the ACS server and going through http instead of https.
    2. Wireless clients are authenticated successfully even after the certificate is uninstalled.
    Any help on these problems will be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Best Regards,
    Ahmed

    Hi Rohit,
    Thanks for reminding the HTTPS option under Administration Control on ACS.
    I have some doubts pertaining to installation of certificates on Wireless clients though it is optional for Self Generated Certificates but what in case of Mirosoft CA as I tested wireless client authentications even after removing the certificate from microsoft supplicant WindowsXP SP2 having installed the patch KB885453 for PEAP. How the certificate on wireless client works.
    Is it mandatory or optional to keep certificate on Wireless Clients as they could able to get authenticated through ACS after removing the certificate.
    Thanks

    You can not set SGA_TARGET greater then 2.7 G on windows 32 bit machine. Yes , you can have SGA greater then 3 Gb but by using AWE which requires to unset SGA_TARGET and use db_block_buffers instead of db_cache_size.

  • Windows 2003 Terminal Server, ZEN 7, and WSUS

    Hi,
    We're having a problem getting a group policy to "Stick" in Windows 2003
    terminal server. The server(s) have the ZEN 7.01 agent installed per
    the TID's for a terminal server. We believe we've set all the Group
    Policies of the users that login to these systems, yet once they are
    rebooted, the WSUS update server location resets to the default
    (update.microsoft.com). This is set in gpedit in:
    \computer configuration\administrative templates\Windows
    Components\Windows Update
    Is this settable in a user package, or should this be done in a
    workstation package? If so, could we "force" the workstation package to
    override the Windows Update settings for all users, regardless of what
    user policy package they have?
    Thanks for any ideas!
    Greg

    In the Properties of the WS Group Policy, there is an option to set "Loop
    Back" so that the Computer GPO is set last.

  • I dream of running Dreamweaver on a Windows 2003 Terminal Server

    I have a "volume" license and attempted to install Dreamweaver CS4 on a Windows 2003 Terminal Server.  I get an error message right away indicating that the system does not meet the minimum install requirements, ie XP/Vista.
    Adobe volume licensing team verified that it is the correct license for installing on a terminal server, but after one hour of what would a bad nightmare with adobe "no" support (Outsourcing issue, failure to grasp and process the basic error message) I got no where and am having to resort to the forums.  I have googled on this and got no where and nothing on the search efforts on this site.
    If anyone has an idea of what is going on, bug, wrong install media, please clue me in.
    Thanks!

    pziecina
    Thanks for the information.  We do have AppV here and tried that approach.  While this gets us past the install minimum requirements, it does not resolve the issue of running of more than one instance at a time, per terminal server, even though our volume license allows for it.

    Hi
    As mentioned above you will not find Toshiba drivers designed especially for the Windows 2003 R2 Server.
    But dont worry and dont give up.
    The simply Windows XP drivers should be compatible and you should be able to install the Xp drivers on the Win2003 Server OS.

    Installed std vista local driver for hp5550 printer with usb cable direct to printer.  Works ok
    Then, disconnected usb copper line to HP labtop and connected it into print server in router (D-link router to HP5500 printer).
    Installed wireless network driver in labtop (vista os)(no updated hp driver available for Vista on HP site).
