Connect To Printer Operation Failed With Error 0x0000007e
August 5, 2014 The problem occurs when the print driver is updated or a new driver is windows cannot connect to the printer error 0x0000007e created on the print server. If you find a printer and update the driver a registry is created to Copy Filesusually spool\DRIVERS\W32X86\3\hpcpn115.dll remove the Print driver that is http://www.smartpctricks.com/2013/06/solved-operation-failed-with-error-0x0000007e-share-printer-between-32-bit-and-64-bit-windows-7.html associated with the printer from Print Server Properties Download file Next go into the registry on the Print SERVER to Go to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Printers\[PrinterName]\CopyFiles\BIDI" and delete the “copyfiles” key in full. attached is a script i built so i do not have to delete the drivers by hand. There is alot of extra http://www.unidesk.com/forum/troubleshooting/desktops-microsoft-windows-and-layers/fix-printer-connection-operation-failed- stuff in the script that i edited out. Posted on November 6, 2014 René Lissner Registered user Joined: April 26, 2011 Thank you! That did it! I just deleted the driver in the print server menu because I didn't found the related entry in the registry. After I deleted the driver I was able to install the printers that were affected by the driver issue.

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 add a new local printer, https://awesometoast.com/fixing-cannot-connect-to-printer-error-0x0000007e/ 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 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 error 0x7e 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 failed with error 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. However, I vould only fix it by changing the system local language. This page describes it at solution 3: http://www.itexperience.net/2011/02/11/operation-failed-with-error-0x0000007e-when-adding-a-printer/ #6 by FirefighterGeek on 03.23.11 at 7:20 am Thanks for this. For my HP network printer on Windows 7, I had to do this as well -- going a step further. It was necessary to remote the printers, then add them back manually, but when adding back I had to create new ports with names that were shorter an contained only letters. By default, when you create a standard tcpip port, it wants to use the IP address you type in as the name as well. I had to override this and use a text name. Then, when asked if I wanted to keep the existing driver or replace it, it
