Hi,
I was wondering if someone has an answer to this.
I had to migrate the printers on a 2008 server to a 2012 server. I currently have no issue with the printers but only one, the HP CP4025dn.
For some reasons the Windows 2012 server assign the new "Microsoft enhanced point to print compatiblility" driver type 4 to the Windows clients. All the clients are Windows 7 32 bit clients and printing from the 2012 server shares. The problem is that nothing happens when the users try to print. There's no error, the job isn't stucked in the queue or whatever. I can even get some info from the printer like "low ink" but nothing is printed. I saw nothing related in the even viewers; neither on the server nor the client machines. There's no error poping at all. Basically just not printing, that's all.
I tried the clients to force to use the HP driver but as long as the printer is pairing with the 2012 server the driver won't take it on the client machine saying that the HP driver isn't made for that printer or it could be a 32 bit / 64 bit wrong driver version issue... but the same driver works if I bypass the 2012 server.
I'm currently checking this with Microsoft. They are so far clueless. but we'd like to clarify this:
We are wondering if this HP Color Laserjet CP4025dn printer support this Type 4, MS enhanced point to print compatibility driver or not. Anyone have an answer to this ?
Thanks for your time !
