Error adding network printer
I created, deleted and created again, a printer in network in Server 2008 Standard. I shared out and I am able to see the printer in the list when you add a network printer using a XP 32 bit workstation. When I try to add the printer from a workstation, I get the following error.
"Unable to connect to the printer. the name of the printer has been correctly entered, or the specified printer has lost the connection to the server.
I ping the IP so I know it's good. Part of my troubleshooting was to open Printers and faxes, open the file menu, click Server properties, click the tab drivers to remove the 1815dn printer driver that existed. Then, I rebooted the PC and tried to add to the printer queue new but still the same error.
I am also able to send a test print from the server to the printer.
I also opened the properties of the printer on the server and selected Advanced tab drivers and ensured that x 86 has been selected. Any suggestions?

Problem adding network printer C6280
Hi, I have a desktop pc (XP pro), linked to a DSL / wireless router. I also have my laptop (XP pro) I use at work, which I use for most wireless home but who want to print on my network printer. So I installed the printer through my desktop pc, Copy to my router and everything works fine...
... However, I can't install it on my laptop. I tried to add through the 'Add printer' Wizard in XP - I added the name of the printer (HP439760) in the dialog box «Connect to this printer...» "initially, he asks me a username and password. Great, I thought - I have no idea what these details are as I have not put them to the printer. Each later after the first time that I have to say, the password prompt does not - only the error message saying the printer is not found. I have to sign out and then sign back in, in order to display the password box when I try and add the printer.
I would be grateful if someone can make sure I'm doing this right by asking some questions - looks like it's a simple task to add a printer on another computer!
1. any ideas I can see why the password box when I try and add the printer? That the user name and password would be - as I have already mentioned, I have not set these for the printer and don't even know how. Could it be related to username / password for my desktop - the machine, I used to install the printer on the network in the first place, or the credentials of my laptop as I normally connect to a domain at work?
2 - is the right way to add the printer, or should I use the downloadable exe file from the support page of the printers? I prefer not to do this as there seems to be a lot of software that is also installed when you install the printer and I don't want to install it on my work laptop - I just want to be able to print at home!
Thanks in advance.
Well, it seems like all I had to do was to use the database page to download - all fixed driver package.

Hello
I have a Windows XP pro (Lenovo) that I recently ran the recovery and returned to certain configurations of 1.5 years. Now I can't add a network printer and get always the message error «Windows cannot connect to the printer or the name of the printer...» ». I ping the printer and all on my network can add these printers, it's just that a machine that fails to add network printers.
I disabled the firewall, but were still unable to add the printer. Then I found some difficulties to register for a similar problem, but they were not useful... It really becomes a big headache, especially Windows restore does not work...
I strongly suspect that 1.5 years, someone has renamed the printer. Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the print server through My Network Places and see what it's callednow . Otherwise, you could ask your network/system administrator. You should know... Please vote if this has been helpful! Please, click on Brand or propose as answer if that answered your question!

Thank you!
Thanks for the details.
I'm afraid this doesn't seem to be something that's going to work. Protected Mode player won't allow printing to a printer that is already installed on the system. Your options are either:
1. install the printer before launching the player with this command line (perhaps install the printer through the same custom application that try to print the PDF file), GOLD,.
2 disable the Protected Mode
Sorry, that I couldn't be useful here.

Error when trying to print to a pdf and network printer
Hi all
When you try to print a report to my network printer or pdf format, I get committed two errors, one right after the other. The PDF or printed has almost everything, with the exception of three tables which is totally absent. When I'll be back in the report and open the page with the missing table, the table is no longer visible in the report and I get the second error once again. Tiara of exit and restart back tables.
I found several threads on pdf and other printing errors and tried solutions without success. specifically the one posted here.
I hope there is a solution to this! These reports are intended to sell management on tiara! Thank you!
News of the OS:
Windows 7 64-bit SP1
18 GB OF RAM
Tiara Info:
Version: 11.3.0f4563
USI: 1.9.1f4681
DataFinder: 3.0.0f4681
Script engine:
5,5,0,5207
Debugger: 6,0,0,8424
I was able to print to PDF format with no omissions by manually adjusting the format string for each table of the column in the report.

I'm having trouble with my
HP OfficeJet 6500 E709N
With windows 7 home
on the wireless network with WEP.
I downloaded the complete solution (more than 200 MB),
and installed it. Add a device. On network printers "found."
It is listed. I insist on the printer, then.Run Network Diagnostics, going to Printer Set up,
Detects the printer (to about 42%), "printer setup does not.Retry - same thing.
Use 'HP printer install wizard for Windows' flashes my printer, and
a for a second progress bar, then shows: 'your download has been cancelled ".Retry, it repeats.
Use HP Print and Scan Doctor 4.6, product selected HP OfficeJet 6500 E709n,.
"The comprehensive software solution is not installed on your computer", press "Install Software"
get flash progress bar, then "failed download."Thank you for advice or URL addresses of the software I need in the installers.
Hey @westmj,
I have another idea to work around the error "printer installation failed. Can I please you try the following steps.
1. run the installer as per normal
2. When you get the error message after your network printer has been detected, you should be able to select 'Next' to continue the installation
3. Once installation is complete the 'Add a device' icon should be on your desktop
4. click on the Start menu
5. Select the devices and printers
6. in the devices window and printers, if you see your HP Officejet please right click and select 'remove an instrument' or 'Remove'.
7 click on any device in devices and printers under printers and faxes section just to highlight. Click the print server properties above. Click the drivers tab.
8 search for the driver for the HP Officejet 6500 series. If you select it and click delete at the bottom. In the window Remove Driver and package select Remove Driver only. Click OK. Finally, click apply and then OK in the print server properties window.
9. on the computer desktop, click on the link Add a device that was placed there by the installer.
