Accessing windows print server #3

Thank you for the tutorials, they worked first try!

I can see the shared printers on \\10.255.255.2 (shared by Windows Server), but when I try to connect to them I get (instantaneously) the error message: "Operation could not be completed (error 0x00000709) Double check the printer name and make sure that the printer is connected to the network." Do you know what I need to change to be able to connect to the printers? How do I debug the connection requests?

I think I have identified the issue: Windows 11 22H2 changed the default behaviour for printer connections. Changing it back to named pipes (followed by a reboot) fixes it. instructions.

Thanks for posting the solution - I have never tested print forwarding with this tutorial but glad to know it is now working again.
