Cannot connect network printers to W7 laptop.
Client has two PCs running XP pro in her office and to one of these there are two printers atached,
a Panasonic DP-1510P MFD and an HP Laserjet 1320 .
She now has a laptop running W7 HP and wantted to access the files and printers on the PCs.
I changed the workgroup on the laptop to match that of the PCs which were already networked and all is well with the file sharing.
BUT when I tried to add the printers in W7 it found them OK but couldn't locate drivers..
I downloaded the drivers but when prompted to install them from the Add Printer wizard I get two different errors - for the Panasonic I get 0x0000214 'cannot connect to printer' .
The laserjet comes with an install application and when I run that I get 0x0000007e 'cannot open Add Printer'
Any ideas please?

We love it so much, we sometimes make horrible decisions. Sometimes, we work "FOR FREE."
SCCM OSD Basic Troubleshooting
SCCM 2007 OSD is a fantastic way to deploy operating systems, however, like most things SCCM issues can sometimes be difficult to resolve due to the sheer volume of logs to sift through and the dispersed nature of the blog posts that deal with some of these issues.

Integrating SCCM and MDT 2008.
