I have someone here who has managed to screw up their printers on server 2008 terminal server.<br />
<br />
They installed a lexmark printer which he said caused loads of errors so he removed the drivers which then caused all printers to stop working?!? <br />
<br />
I have managed to get the local printers working again by just adding the drivers again as it said they were missing.<br />
<br />
Though on the redirected printers of the various remote sites using this terminal server now can't print even though they are showing in *control panel* *printers* though when going into properties and print test page its coming up with *test page failed to print* with the error 0x00000057.<br />
<br />
Any ideas people ?<br />
<br />
Thanks

Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, based on the Microsoft Vista codebase, is the last 32-bit server operating system released by Microsoft.

A printer is a peripheral which makes a persistent human readable representation of graphics or text on paper or similar physical media. Traditional printers are being used more for special purposes, like printing photographs or artwork, and are no longer a must-have peripheral; 3D printing has become an area of intense interest, allowing the creation of physical objects. An image scanner is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image. Hand-held scanners, where the device is moved by hand, have evolved from text scanning "wands" to 3D scanners used for industrial design, reverse engineering, test and measurement, orthotics, gaming and other applications.
