cannot see printers of a w2003 printserver on the vista printmgmt
Hi
I am working in a AD 2003. I added a Vista Enterprise Client to the Domain. Now i am testing the printmanagement Interface and have some question. I could add all printserver located in my site and when i am expanding the servers i can see and export all drivers and ports associated. But i cannot see any printers installed under the printer view. I also see that if i create a filter, it only applies to the local printers. It seems to me that filters and printer view only applies to local attached printers, is this wright and does somebody have a good article witch describs this. Thank's for updating a newbies. kind regards -- Eric Dee welcome to dmz |

It sounds like the firewall is blocking the data from the server. If you
are using the Windows firewall be sure to enable the File and Printer sharing ports and they need to be scoped for All computers on the network. Also verify that anonymous authentication is enabled on the client. The Windows 2000 and 2003 print servers will talk to Vista making a connection to the Vista machine as printservername$ Once the print servers can connect to the client machine anonymously, the filters pertaining to the printers shared on the server can populate the filters. -- Alan Morris Windows Printing Team Search the Microsoft Knowledge Base he http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh;[ln];kbhowto This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

cannot see printers of a w2003 printserver on the vista printm
Hello Alan
Thanks for your reply. I have suspected this allready and i turned the Firewall off for the domain profile. But i still cant see the printers. I can see all drivers and ports on each of my printservers and the printers associated to the ports, but no printers under printer/view and no possibility to applie filters. How can i enable anonymous access? Do you mean in the Local Security Policy? could not find any tips in help. I only now this setting in IIS. -- Eric Dee welcome to dmz "Alan Morris [MSFT]" wrote: It sounds like the firewall is blocking the data from the server.
