Cannot print from mapped printer on windows 2003 server

89 New Member
Hello Guys

I cannot print from a locally installed printer that is mapped to a windows 2003 sever.

I have installed the printer locally and can print locally. I connect to the windows 2003 server by using remote desktop connection. i have checked the printer checkbox under local resources, so that it maps the printer when i connect.

I can also see the printer on my printer list when i am logged on to the windows 2003 server, but when i print to the printer nothing happens.

I have the printer driver installed both locally and on the windows 2003 server....

Does anyone have an idea to what is wrong......???? ???

is it just that printer or any printer connected to the server? I'm thinking it a security issue that has to be adjusted.

it is a security issue, you have to setup your firewall to allow these types of connections.

Every 10 seconds I need to search a SQL table for orders to print. The orders are created through WebForms on ASP.NET clients. The orders should not print until 10 minutes before they are due. The network printer will be available from the server running IIS and SQL Server 2000. If this were a Windows Forms application, then I would create a system timer in Form1.Load(). How is this done in an ASP.NET application?

The following code (which is distilled down from a larger application) worked for several years previously. Now, the instant you click on the print icon within the print preview window the workstation crashes hard: reboots and upon Windows restart wants to send an error report to Microsoft (recovered from severe error). My default printer is HP LaserJet 5000N Series PCL6; if I select an alternative printer (different HP model) this...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
