Hi Everyone,
We have an issue with Network Printers on Windows 8/2012. When we install network printers on Windows 8 machine, where we use our own print provider, the Devices and Printers UI doesn't list network printer.
We have observed that it is listed in apps (for ex: notepad, Ms-Word...etc). We contacted Microsoft on this issue and found that we need to register the PrintingQueue DevNode to get necessary entries to be created in registry. This should be implemented as part of our provider.
Can anyone help me on how to implement registering the PrintingQueue DevNode as part of a provider? Sharing some samples (WDK/SDK) would greatly help us.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Kamal
