HP Recommended
Operating System: Microsoft Windows Server 2019

With the Microsoft updates that fix the printernightmare bug, they introduced a higher security, so that when a user connects a printer from a printserver, Windows asks for administrative credentials, if the driver is not already installed.

To solve this problem, we are deploying the drivers for almost all the printers we use, so they are preinstalled on all clients.

 

Now, on one printserver we have some printers who do not support PCL6, so that we also installed the latest PCL5 driver. When one of the clients now tries to connect to either a PCL6 or a PCL5 printer, Windows pops up a window (Do you trust this printer...) and requires an administrator to allow the installation, even though the drivers have been deployed to the client.

 

On another printserver, we only installed the PCL6 driver and we can connect a printer on that printserver without Windows asking for administrative credentials.

 

My suspicion is, that on the printserver with both PCL5 and PCL6, there is a mix of versions of DLLs or different certificates.

 

Did anyone encounter that problem and has a solution?
