Hi
I've read a lot of forums and this issue has been discussed many times. I've tried to follow the suggestions, but still the same issue.
The issue is simple: We are using GPO to deploy network printers. The domain is set to level 2012R2 and the print server is also 2012 R2. We use the same procedure for printers such as HP, Konica Minolta and that's fine. It this case I need to deploy a Brother MFC-8510DN printer and it this case the drivers are missing on the Windows 7 Clients and have to be installed from the print server. Standard users are then asked for admin credentials, and domain admins still have to click the button to install the driver. This means that the printer is not automatically deployed to anyone, not to admins either, only if they add the printer manually from the server and click the button to install the driver.
To solve this I've created a new GPO:
Computer Configuration --> Policies --> Windows Settings --> Security Settings --> Local Policies/Security Options --> Devices: Prevent users from installing printer drivers (Disabled)
I've also laborated with Point and print settings:
User Configuration --> Policies --> Administrative Templates --> Controlpanel/Priters --> Point and Print restrictions
...but it doesnt work at all.
I appreciate if someone can help with this issue!
Thank you
