Networking Printer Installation #118

Open JeanMaarc opened 11 months ago

JeanMaarc commented 11 months ago

Hi all, Am I the only one to not manage installing the network printing function? All is fine except when I print from the network. I can see the job going to my print server but nothing is coming is the destination folder. Can somebody help please? Many thanks

We have the same problem with clawPDF. As we use it for quite some time seems to us that the problem could be related to some Microsoft update. We run clawPDF on Microsoft Windows Server 2019. Enabling the log on the clawPDF doesnt help much...

I had this issue, but after messing with the settings of the printers on the server which makes the printers available, it suddenly started working.

Ive found this topic, https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/viewtopic.php?t=42890 which states: Then I changed the printer driver in the printer driver setting to a different driver, changed it back to the original driver (no new installation, just switching back to the original one) and it is now working. Printer driver is the latest version, so no update is possible.

I would be gratefull if other users can try this too and post feedback in this thread.
