own business, trying to add a new shared printer to a Windows 2008 Server, when all of a sudden, you get hit with this strange error message.

An Error Occurred During Port Configuration Operation Could Not Be Completed
it drove me a little batty. I’ve been configuring shared printers on TCP/IP ports for years, and never had a machine give me this error. an error occurred during port configuration this operation is not supported windows 7 Well, Microsoft changed this one on me. The solution is to close the Printer properties dialog, then in the “Device and Printers” window, highlight the printer you want to change, and click on “Print Server Properties” in the menu bar. Then

in the next screen, click the ports tab, and “Change Port Settings” Note: If you're using Windows 10, you may want to look at "How to Change Port Settings for Printers in Windows 10" Now you’ll have the configure port button that works. Just select your port and click “Configure Port” and you’ll have access to everything you expected. Hope that helps you out.

Reply Tony says: July 16, 2015 at 00:17 Had a similar issue in 2012 R2. The solution is to not use the Control Panel app. Right click the start icon and select "Print Management" - it seems to start with admin rights and you can the delete ports etc that fail from the Control Panel Hope this helps someone out there Reply MikeScott says: July 16, 2015 at 08:56 Thanks for the feedback Tony! It looks like this method still works for Server 2012 R2 though. I tried your method, and when I right click on the start icon (orb) I don't have an "Print management" option in the menu. The server I was trying it on doesn't have any print server roles or features installed though. Reply carlos melgar says: December 1, 2015 a

network can access it fine. I originally thought it would be an IP address issue, but it turned out not to be anything to do with an error occurred during port configuration access is denied server 2008 that. In fact, the solution was far simpler - but also slightly strange… It turns out that Windows Vista automatically enables SNMP support for networked printers, and if it can't get a response to a SNMP message then it assumes the printer http://www.geeksontech.com/an-error-occurred-during-port-configuration-access-is-denied/ is offline. SNMP stands for Simple Network Management Protocol and is a way of getting information from network devices (such as routers, servers and printers), mainly for the purposes of finding out if there are any problems with the devices. A number of networked printers implement SNMP, and will respond to SNMP queries with information, but some don't. My printer (a fairly old Lexmark T640) is one of the ones that doesn't implement it - so of course Vista will never get a response to http://blog.rtwilson.com/how-to-fix-a-network-printer-suddenly-showing-as-offline-in-windows-vista/comment-page-2/ a SNMP message. The result of which is that the printer will start showing as offline at a seemingly random time because Vista has just sent a SNMP message to it, and it hasn't responded. Thankfully there is a simple way to fix this - and it just involves telling Vista not to try and communicate with the printer via SNMP. Simply right-click on the printer in the Printers window, choose the Ports tab, and select Configure Port. At the bottom you will see a checkbox saying something like SNMP Status Enable. Untick that, and the printer should start showing as online again. That should be it…but here are a few other tips/observations from people who've commented on this post: This has been found to work on a variety of versions of Windows including Windows Vista Windows 7 Windows 8 Windows 8.1 Windows 10 Windows Server 2003 Windows Server 2008 Windows Server 2012 You could need to be logged in as an administrator before you can change the SNMP status If you're running Windows 8 then this could be the problem instead (thanks Gompo) If you find that this solves it for a bit but it keeps going offline again then editing the registry at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print and adding a new DWORD called SNMPLegacy with the value 1 and restarting may solve it (thanks Coxy) The issue can be caused even when the printer does support SNMP, but somehow the SNMP communications aren't getting through - for example, due to a firewall or port configur

The printer is linked to a desktop computer using windows 7 professional x64 witch is connected to a network. an error The driver is installed from brother site. I have three computers on the network. One, to witch the printer is connected too, and two other ones who are connected to the printer using the network sharing. two computers use windows 7 x64, and one XP. The problem is when i an error occurred restart. When i log on, after restarting the computer, the printer is offline (in windows 7). When i restart the laptop who uses XP the printer works. I found that if i reboot windows 7 and open computer/network/sharing computer and double click on the shared printer, in the devices and printers my mfc 425cn goes online. If i restart or shutdown, it goes offline again. Does anybody have an idea about the solution of this problem?

What settings do you find there? It should be on a TCP\IP standard port. Now close out of properties and right-click the printer icon and select Troubleshoot. Let the wizard detect and offer solutions. Brother has a disclaimer rega
