I've set up a clustered print spooler on a two node W2K3 cluster. I've
installed my printers on the node that owns the print spooler resource and I
can print to all of the printers on that node just fine. However, when I
attempt to connect to the printers from a remote workstation over the
network, I'm getting an error that says 'Windows cannot connect to the
printer. Either the printe rname was typed incorrectly, or the specified
printer has lost it's connection to the server'. There is a kb article that
appears to address this issue, it's KB883789. I believe I've followed the
instructions in that article by setting up a group policy for the machine
that owns the print spooler that allows remote connections to the print
spooler. I also tried setting this up on the virtual server that owns the
print spooler in the cluster. Neither of these has worked. Can someone
point me to a solution? Thanks in advance.
