Network printer dosent gets installed on windows 10 workstation .

Hi

I have upgraded the PC from Windows 7 to Windows 10 and have logged into the PC as domain administrator. We have a RICOH AficioSG3100SNw shared printer and was successfully working with Win7 and after moving to win 10 when I connect to the printer from windows 10 PC it says " a policy is in effect on your computer which prevents you from connecting to this print que. Please contact your administrator.

I came across the link below and please let me know do I need to configure this GPO on computer policy or the user policy

Thanks
