I have just installed Windows 2008 server, and am attempting to add my network printers. When I specify the IP address of the printers it searches for a few seconds, and then gives an "Access denied" message.
I can ping the printers from the server, and can ping the server from elsewhere on the local network. The server and the printers are on the same subnet.
I can create a folder in the System32/Spool/Printers directory.
I am logged in as Administrator.
There seem to be no error messages in the event log.
There have been some discussions about User Access Control. However, this does not seem to apply as I am the Administrator.
