Trang 23REDIRECTING PRINT JOBS
• Reduces the impact of a failed printer
• Enables users to continue printing without
reconfiguration
• Destination printer must use the same
driver type as the original

Trang 27TROUBLESHOOTING PRINTERS
Troubleshooting procedures can include one or
more of the following:
• The application that is attempting to print
• The logical printer on the computer on which the application is running
• The network connection between the client and the
logical printer on the server
• The logical printer on the server (spooler,
drivers,
security settings, and so forth)
Trang 28TROUBLESHOOTING PRINTERS (continued)
• The connection between the print server
and the printer
• The printer itself—its hardware,
configuration, and status
Trang 29IDENTIFY THE SCOPE OF FAILURE
• Determine if failure is confined to a single
Trang 30TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURES
• Verify that the print client can connect to
the print server
• Verify that the printer is operational
• Verify that the printer can be accessed from
the print server
• Verify that the print server’s services are
running
Trang 31• The printing architecture in Windows Server 2003
is modular, consisting of the physical printer, a
print server with a shared, logical printer
connected to the physical printer through a local
or network port, and a logical printer on a client that connects to the shared, logical printer on the print server.
• A local printer is one that supports a printer
directly attached to the computer or attached to the network
• Shared printers are published to Active Directory
• The Add Printer Wizard is used to add a logical
printer.
Trang 32SUMMARY (continued)
• A single logical printer can direct jobs to
more than one port, creating a printer pool
• A single physical printer can be served by
multiple logical printers, each of which can
be configured with unique properties,
drivers, settings, or monitoring
characteristics
• The print queue window, event logs, and
performance counters enable you to
monitor printers for potential signals of
trouble and for utilization statistics
Trang 33SUMMARY (continued)
• Print jobs can be redirected to another
printer
• Because the Windows Server 2003 printer
model is modular, you can easily
troubleshoot each component link
separately
