So this morning, no one on RDS had printers again.

WTF..

So I manually added a printer direclty on the RDS server (not from the Print Server (the DC)). IT showed up immediately on all users and was able to be printed to.

So I manually added all the printers direct. Issues resolved for the moment.

FFS Microsoft...

Gotta love Bob-

This is an easy line of questioning

I wonder how their alerts can be missing this for days?

Of course it was still broken today - well, the display portion was at least.

While continuing to work on this, since I could see the Manage box, I decided to try to tab to it, and it worked. I pressed enter with it highlighted and I was able to manage it.

Now my goal was to set it as default, the set as default button was missing. After some searching around, I realized that the "Let Windows manage my default printer" box had become rechecked. After unchecking it, and once again using the tab trick to get into manage the MS Print to PDF feature, I was able to set it as the default printer.

So I've found a work-a-round, but the display issue is still there so I don't consider the issue resolved.

You can use CUPS Command Line
https://www.cups.org/doc/admin.html

lpadmin -p PrinterName -E -v socket://ip.address.of.printer -m printerdriver.ppd

Aren't printers and configs saved in a file somewhere? If so, could I copy that file to other minions, similar to remmina connection files as discussed in the other thread?

I did not see your other thread but let me check.

@Dashrender Got it. Our departments have their own budget so if they want to print color they can but they figured out fast to be responsible for their own paper.

That seems like a bad approach, since any given department could be forced to stop work "because they overran their paper budget".

Usually, they use the code and pin to know where they are using color but otherwise default is to allow b&w to print without a code.

How does the printer know the difference? Black is a color. .

Really?

Yes really, how does a printer know the difference between CMYK and a page which is black and white.

It's an honest question as I don't know how a Pin to "print in color" would affect this the way you described it.

Also to whoever downvoted, not sure why.

Okay, there are different types of print black and white, gray scale and color which uses CMYK , usually on MFP devices they have different toners for esch of those colors plus black. When a job is sent to the printer with the color setting on the driver it then uses those toners while black and white only requests the black toner

None of the explains what I've asked. How does entering a pin, allow someone to print in color? I've always seen Pin or No Pin for all printing.

Nothing I've ever used has offered "pin for color prints only" etc.

It can be for both.

I did an in place upgrade of Windows 10 and it looks to have resolved the issue.

That is awesome, I will need to try it for a Quickbooks user with the same issue here.

I remember having that annoying problem when printing from Fedora to a Brother MFP device.

This is real Windows 10, not Fedora that just looks like Windows 10 😉

@dave247 I have a few ideas about who they are specifically... but after they decided to be a bunch of dicks about anyone here posting links to their site that shall not be named, they created an account here to spy, presumably. Lot of former 🌶 folks here... Lots of 🖕 🖕 🖕 🖕 🖕 for their informers.

It's a public site, doesn't take much for someone to inform, lol. It's a bit like tattling on a billboard.

That sounds a lot like calling out your Husband by doing this to his ride.

@garak0410 said in Replaced HP Printer With Same DNS Name and IP - Won't Ping:

Sorry, I didn't see this was posted on my behalf.

After I connected my laptop to the port and got no lights or connection and brought over a 20 foot cable to plug into the printer and then the printer connected, I have determined it is the LAN Jack.

But get this...I connected an old 100 Meg desktop switch I had laying around to that jack and then connected the printer to that switch and then it worked. So they are up and running.

I've seen that before. The auto-negotiation doesn't work for anything beyond the IP. I saw that happen with an HP LJ 4000 series once. Replaced the card on it and it fixed the issue. But sometimes that's the issue.

@Reid-Cooper said:

It's a local printer, so this issue is isolated to a single machine?

Yep isolated to this machine and user... this particular one is very troubled!

Isolated to the machine AND user? Have you tried from another User Profile on that machine?

@thanksaj said:

Ok, so is it a new router with the same IP or just the elimination of the extra mess?

Same router. Just extra routers removed.

Ok.

@Dashrender said:

Where did you get your numbers from? The manufactures websites?

Most manufacturers post those numbers. You then combine them with the real world prices to see what the price per page works out to be, roughly. It is always a bit of a guessing game, though.
