Windows 2008 R2 Server, running Print Services.
I am able to create printers/queues without problem. If I open a browser and go to \\server I can see the printers and connect to them just fine.
My next step is to add the printer to Active Directory. I open MMConsole, browse to the container, right click, select New-Printer, and type in the printer name (\\server\Printer Name). Upon hitting enter I get the following error.
"The printer cannot be published. To publish printers on computers running the Windows 2000 or Windows Server 2003 operating systems, use the Printers folder."
This is occurring on new or old print queues. Doesn't matter what container it's in. We were able to add printers via this method a couple days ago. The only change made on the printer server was adding a SSL certificate for Papercut (print paper management software).
Thoughts? Solutions? Ideas?
