Can Not add shared printer on the system which is connected to domain and users log in with domain id and password
When you try to add the shared printer which is connected to an system which is not part of domain, as a domain user you may get a message sayign a Policy on this system is preventing you to join the print queue
Ever got this situation?
So after some googling I found its bcoz of a default domain policy which is preventing printers to be added to system if the system is part of domain
So solution is to add this print server to the list of servers which can be available to the domain users as shared printer
To get it
Open the Group Policy Editor
Default Domain Policy
User Configuaration
Administrative Templates
Control Panel
Printers
Point And Print Restriction
Add the IP address or fqdn of the shared printer system here, multiple can be added with coma separated
And thats it
On the system which is connected to domain just run gpupdate /force and refresh the group policy and then try to add the printer, it must go smooth this time
Thats all for now on this issue
