How to clear REGISTRY for any printer informations
Hi all :)
i have this kinda wierd problem. i have my printer installed and shared on a server, and on some clients i get this message if i try to add the printer, "OU:Cannot connect to printer \\servername\printername"
its only on some of the clients..
so i was thinking, is there a way to clear the registey for all printer drivers, printer shares, etc?
i have removed all files within the 2 folders,
C:\windows\system32\spool\printers\
C:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\
i have also under the regsitey path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT x86
also deleted all printers. and if i search the regstey for the share name of the printers, i have deleted those to. but still it seems to come with that error.
but if i reinstall the OS, i have no problem with adding / installing my printers.
please help, i dont want to reinstall 10 machines.. :S
