asked on

shared printers visible using Powershell but not in Control Panel!?

Hi,

Some of the printers I've been sharing to my users using GPO are not visible in the 'printer section' of the Control Panel. But I can see them using 'get-printer' in Powershell. And they're visible in the printer dialogue of programs like Word or Excel.

But since they're not visible in the Control Panel I had to use Powershell to make one of them the default printer.

Anyone know why this is happening?

Hi, it might be tied to this indeed ... I'd removed 'Everyone' and I added a specific security group instead. That should have been working, not sure why it didn't ... I have re-added Everyone and I'm testing now.

But it should work with only specific security groups too though, no?
