Basic print server

Are you sure that Canon MP830 is even print server capable?

Also, you'll lose a lot of printer features by plugging it into a print server. It'll pretty much only be able to print.

 

Printing

Hi,

Print Spooler service is your main connector with the printer, and if this service doesn’t work, you won’t be able to print your documents. To assist you with your printing concern, kindly refer to the troubleshooting steps below:

Method 1: Run the Printing Troubleshooter

We suggest that you click on this article and follow the steps to run the troubleshooter:
Fix printer problems.

Method 2: Uninstall unnecessary printers

Having two or more printers installed can cause issues with the Print Spooler and printing. Follow the steps below to uninstall any unnecessary printers:

• Press Windows Key + X and select Control Panel from the list.
• When Control Panel opens, locate Devices and Printers.
• In Devices and Printers section select the printer you want to remove and click Print server properties.
• Go to Drivers tab. You should see the list of all installed printers.
• Select the printer you want to remove and click the Remove button.
• Select Remove driver and driver package and click OK to completely remove the printer.
• After removing unnecessary printers, restart your PC.

We'll be waiting for your response.

 

Print server instantly "prints" documents after they spooling but nothing actually prints.

We have a print server running on a Hyper-V Generation 2 Virtual Windows Server 2016 1607 hosted on a Windows Server 2016 1607. Up until a couple of days ago, things were printing fine,
now all of a sudden we are unable to print anything. Documents will briefly spool and then disappear from the queue. If a printer is set to keep printed documents in the queue they will show as printed immediately after they finish spooling no matter how many
pages are supposedly printed.

Here's the troubleshooting I've tried so far:

• Ensured Print Server has the latest Windows Update
• Uninstalled the most recent non-security updates since problems started (and shortly before)
• Restarted Server
• Restarted Print Spooler service, both using the restart option and simply stopping and starting it
• Ensured printers print on their own; both configuration pages and USB direct connect
• Tried printing from Multiple computers, including the print server itself
• Shut down print spooler and cleared everything out of System32\spool\PRINTERS
• For one of our multi-purpose printers I:
  • Created a new printer and port to it's IP address
  • Tried literally ever latest Windows 10 Driver available on the manufacturer's site.
  • Tried every Print Processor
  • Unchecked "Render print jobs on client computers"
  • Unchecked "SNMP Status Enabled" in the port configuration
  • Set it to print only after all pages are spooled
  • Unchecked "Print spooled documents first"
  • Checked "Hold mismatched documents"
  • Set a new IP Address

The only major change since this problem arose was a change to the permissions, but as far as I can tell the permissions are set up correctly and this doesn't sound like a permissions
issue because there's no permissions errors and documents are spooling correctly.

Any new suggestions are welcome because I've run out of ideas and at this point we are considering just rebuilding the thing on physical
hardware to see if Hyper-V is causing the issue.
