Windows Cannot Connect To The Printer Operation Failed With Error 0x0000007e
is some way of debugging why the driver fails. The drivers are shared from a Windows 2003 R2 server, and our clients are Windows windows cannot connect to the printer 0x00000002 7 Enterprise x86. The full URL of the driver is http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=18972&prodSeriesId=431039&prodNameId=431042&swEnvOID=2093&swLang=8&mode=2&taskId=135&swItem=pl-28280-4 Wednesday, September 02, 2009 8:01 AM Reply | Quote Answers 8 Sign in to vote I consulted with an HP print driver developer, he was the one who suggested deleting the key. That was in 2005. It windows cannot connect to the printer 0x00000057 has not caused aproblem since. The hot fix corrects an issue when the print driver changes the default file location and the spooler does not reset and loses track of where the next file is. The issue you are hitting is a setting on the printer that points to a 32bit version of a driver file which the 64 client bit machine (your client should be 64 bit) will not download. HP does not setup the pointer to the file when installing the printer using the 64bit version of the driver on the server so they have addressed this when installing the printer on 64bit. The reg key on the machine sharing the printer is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers\PRINTERNAME\CopyFiles\BIDI there will be an entry for spool\DRIVERS\W32X86\3\hpcpn6de.dll which you can delete so the clients can connect. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/en-us/winserverprint/thread/44CA5958-4588-4710-B231-A4A5EBDB3611 Alan Morris Windows Printing Team Edited by Alan Morr
the print server, but making connections to the individual printers gave us this error. Good times. The workaround was to add the printer manually, as a local printer. To

do this: Go to Control Panel > Printers > Add Printer. Then windows cannot connect to the printer no printers were found add a new local printer, using a local port. (Not TCP/IP.) For the name, put in the whole path.

This will be something like: \\YourPrintServer\ThePrintersName Now it will ask you about drivers. (Make sure you have downloaded the 64-bit drivers for your printer.) Choose Have Disk…, and browse to where https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/6c68f4d3-fa4c-4986-9567-bbe89551652f/windows-7-windows-cannot-connect-to-the-printer-0x0000007e?forum=winserverprint you saved them. With luck, it will now ask you for what you want to call the printer on your local computer, and you're done! This fix worked for every computer we ran into this error for. Good luck!

Thanks! #2 by zp on 05.17.10 at 2:59 pm Worked for me on Win 7 64-bit with network printer. Created local port of \\printserver\printer. Thanks. #3 by Ant on 09.03.10 at 10:41 am I had the same problem - it turned out to be HP's 64-bit drivers copying over a wrong dll to the client computers. I've documented the problem and solution here… just needs one registry tweak on the server. http://www.nikrooz.co.uk/?p=26 #4 by PB on 09.08.10 at 9:19 am This is actually a bug in Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2. You can download the hotfix, but it is not yet available via WSUS or Windows Update. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982728 "Windows cannot connect to printer" error message when you try to create a Point and Print connection to a remote printer from a Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2-based client computer #5 by Mick Brown on 02.12.11 at 1:21 pm I also had this problem.

say you’re running Windows 7 on a computer connected to a local network. There is a shared https://scottiestech.info/2010/09/21/how-to-fix-windows-cannot-connect-to-printer-errors-in-windows-7/ printer running on a different machine on the network. The drivers for the printer are installed on the remote machine, and the printer is shared. You think that you’ll just sit down at your puter, use the Add Printer feature, connect to the remote printer, the driver will be copied over to your machine automagically, and cannot connect you’ll be off and running. But then you see this: Windows cannot connect to the printer. Operation could not be completed (error 0x0000007e). There is a common solution you can find on the web involving creating a new local port and inserting the network path to the remote printer, but you may find that doesn’t work either! cannot connect to The solution to your problem is very simple, and is even available as a Hotfix from Microsoft. You don’t really even need the hotfix, though. Here’s how you “fix the glitch”. It turns out that this “cannot connect to printer” error (0x0000007e) is well-known to Microsoft. Check out this Technet forum thread entitled “Windows 7 Printer Problems”: winerror 0x7e 126 ERROR_MOD_NOT_FOUND <–> 0xc0000135 STATUS_DLL_NOT_FOUND When the printer was added to the server, the driver created a registry to copy this file which in not neccessary since the client already has the file. During the connection process, the driver resets the path from \windows\system32 to the print drivers directory \windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 (or w32x86\3) but never sets it back to default and the spooler process does not reset it either and looks for the color module mscms.dll in the drivers directory. Look at the registry setting of the problem printers on the server HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers\PRINTERNAME\CopyFiles Is the module value \windows\system32\mscms.dll or just mscms.dll? I think if you copy the mscms file to the drivers directory
