nicholab Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 Why is deploy printer deployment via gpo not working on Windows 8.1. This works fine on Windows 7 the printers are being deployed per user using the deploy printer option not preferences. It seems to be very wooly how it works. I can see the printers on the shared on the server.
Fazza Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Can you elaborate a bit more as it works OK in Windows 8, 8.1 and 8.1u1 for us (and many others too). Any screenshots of what you've done to deploy them would be a great help and you might get some replies
nicholab Posted June 17, 2016 Author Posted June 17, 2016 Printer are deploy by security filtering of policy then deployed under User> Polices> Windows Settings> Printer connections. This seems to not be applying since a windows update that I am guessing was released on the Tuesday 14th June. The update has then applied on 15th and 16th and now printers being deployed this way are now not working.
sjatkn Posted June 19, 2016 Posted June 19, 2016 Update MS16-072 changes how GPO's are applied. This may help you: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/poshchap/2016/06/16/ms16-072-known-issue-use-powershell-to-check-gpos/
