Server 2016 Printing Issues:  Paused Print Jobs (not queues) disappears after 30 seconds

We are implementing Papercut to monitor/audit printing to nearly 200 printers district wide.  We primarily have Sharp Multifunctions along with a bunch HP SOHO devices.  We've implemented two 2016 Server Enterprise VM's as Print Servers, putting Sharps on \\PS1 and everything else on \\PS2.  We've then published shares to AD - everything pretty much by the book and working well.

Papercut is installed on a separate 2016 VM and is working well, tracking all AD user's activity.  Our problem is trying to implement "follow me" printing.  Papercut supports this by the creation of a Printer using a local port named "nul".  In Papercut management we identify this print queue as "virtual queue", allowing end users to walk up to a Sharp Mulitfunction and release the held job to that particular device.

Our problem is that these paused print jobs disappear after 30 seconds.

Opening a ticket with Papercut, they help us determine that although we can pause a queue, with jobs staying forever, if we pause an individual job, it then disappears after 30 seconds.  To ensure Papercut was not the issue, we disabled all Papercut Services, and brought down the Papercut Server.  Still the same issue.

Has any encountered this?

I often need to determine the IP address of printers that are mapped to Windows 10 computer using WSD.

What is the best method for doing this?

Is this IP address stored somewhere within Windows 10 (such as the registry) where it can be looked up?

Installing Brother MFC 9420 CN under Windows 10

Dear all,

perhaps had some of you the same problem and solved it - old printer/scanner under a new operating system..

We would like to use our still perfectly functionning MFC 9420 CN under W7 and W10, especially the scan function.  
On W7 the CC3 should be fine. For W10, the CC4 application is required but following the Brother website it is not ment to be used with this printer...
However, right now we have only the CC2 wich was originally delivered with the printer.
First, where do we get the CC3 from? The brother website offers a download of an update file only.
If CC4 is really not compatible, could we you CC3 and how do we install older scanner drivers onto W10.

Thx a lot, Peter

What are the steps necessary to disable SNMP polling on a Kyocera TASKalfa 3051ci network printer?

I have logged onto this printer within a web browser using its IP address but I'm not sure where to go to disable the SNMP polling.

Attached is the manual for this printer.

TASKalfa_3051ci...Re_03_-ENG-.pdf

An organization I am working at has an issue where Windows 10 users are sometimes intermittently disconnected from a Kyocera TASKalfa 3051ci network printer.

The users are connected to this printer both by its IP address and through a second connection using a shared print queue on the domain controller.

When these users are disconnected the printer remains visible within Windows and Windows applications such as Office and Adobe Acrobat (but will be grayed out). When this issue occurs it affects only one computer at a time and all other computes in the office remain connected to and are able to print to this network printer.

This can happen both while users are connected to the Wi-Fi network and while they are connected with an Ethernet network cable.

All computers within my organization are joined to the Server 2016 Active Directory domain.

To fix this issue the printer will need to be deleted from within the Printer applet and then re-added on the user's computers. Or the issue can be fixed by rebooting the computer.

This issue doesn't occur very often but when it does it provides an annoyance especially for the users who don't know how to delete and then re-add the network printer.

What can be done to fix this issue so that these user's Windows 10 computers will stop disconnecting from this network printer?

I've changed the printer from black & white to color to perform printing in excel, word, powerpoint & winword.

Exit the printing setting to work space but the printer setting will be remembered by the office / IE application registry to color

My boss want to prevent ppl from accidentally printing color after exit the printing setting on the work space don't remember to color instead back to black & white.

we've 20,000 users using this printer.

How to set this to GPO and push down to every local machine registry printer to default black & white

Hi Experts,

I purchased MFC-9130CW a year ago, and I'm still using the original Toners.  I got "Toner Low" message, but I found online how to reset them, and they are printing just fine.

Can anyone tell me if it damages the printer if I keep doing this until I see the quality decline?

Hi,

I have a Kyocera Ecosys M3550idn coppier.

Is it posible to copy on pages from multiple drawers in the same job eg. page 1 from drawer 2 page 2-3 from drawer 3 and the rest from drawer 1?

Thanks

I have a print server running Windows 2016 which I have installed specific drivers from HP for our DesignJet T930 plotter.  There are 3 flavors of drivers all of which are shared:
HPGL/2 which is a V3 driver
PCL3 & Post Script which are V4 drivers

Due to the small number of users in various departments connecting to this plotter, I am connecting them manually.  "Start Run" "\\Servername" - then right click and "connect".  The clients are running Windows 10.

Instead of installing the driver located on the Print Server, Windows 10 insists on grabbing the featureless version from Windows update.  The Windows update version is considered a later version - of course by Microsoft not by HP.  The HP versions are installed and running fine on the Server.

By change would anyone know how to change this behavior in Windows 10 or force Window 10 to install the version from the Server.

Thank you.

In a crystal report I'm wanting to suppress a group header and footer if the results of the total debits, credits and Ending Balance is equal to zero on all three fields as shown in the highlighted in yellow example attached.  you can see where the totals for these accounts in the debit, credits and Ending Balance are all zero, hence I would like to suppress the header and footer from printing.  If I use the following crystal syntax formula Sum ({tglTranRptWrk.AcctEndBalHC}, {@groupo1})) = 0 when I attempt to run the report I receive the following error  "There must be a group that matched this field"

I have this really annoying issue that I can't figure out by myself and the Ricoh support is useless. I have Ricoh 3503 copiers(but I have the same issue on other Ricoh models too). Whenever I try to print from Windows 10 'Photos' or Edge, the print job gets stuck in the queue and the only way to remove it is by stopping/starting the 'Print Spooler' on the server and cleaning the 'spool' folder. That causes major issues with jobs getting stuck in the queue and staff losing their print jobs.

Windows 10  1709 and 1803.

Any help would be highly appreciated.
