I receive the following error when attempting to install a TCP/IP printer using PrintUI:
"Operation could not be completed (error 0x00000705). Windows cannot locate a suitable printer driver. Contact your administrator for help locating and installing a suitable driver."
This is the command line I'm using to load a signed PCL6 driver for a Canon iR3235 printer:
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "printer" /f "c:\canonimagerunner\P62KUSAL.inf" /r "IP_192.168.152.41" /m "Front Desk"
Manually installing this same printer/driver through the "add printer" wizard is successful.
I resorted to using PrintUI instead of Group Policy printer management because that method was also failing to load this printer from a shared server instance, perhaps due to the same core driver dependency issue. We are testing this on a 32-bit Windows 7 Enterprise workstation, running the command line under a domain admin account.
We have already hit a dead-end in the Microsoft forums as seen here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/w7itprogeneral/thread/ea0f6b15-4bad-40a8-8f35-5c7993703ceb
Any ideas would be much appreciated!
