Hello
I have in several occasions experienced problems with the GPP print mapping feature. I receive the following error:
Group Policy object did not apply because it failed with error code '0x80070bc4 No printers were found.' This error was suppressed.
I have experienced this in a couple of different setups now, setups at different customers with different printers and both 2003 print servers and 2008/2008R2 print servers.
I create a GPO that maps printers based on AD group membership, I configure the GPP to"Run in logged-on user's security context (user policy option)" and "Remove this item when it is no longer applied" and I configured the needed AD group in the"Item level targeting" feature. Usually the GPP works at first logon, the printer maps correctly, but if I remove the user from the AD group specified in the item level targeting section, the printer is NOT deleted/removed and the error specified above appears in the event viewer.
For now I have reproduced this error message in setups at different customers and in my own test environment on RDS and Citrix XenApp 6 servers running 2008 R2/2003 R2 Service Pack 1. I have tried 3-5 different private hotfixes all aimed at different issues regarding print or GPP on 2008 R2, nothing has working so far.
Right now I am working on a new Citrix XenApp 6 server at a customer and I yet again have experinced the issue described above. I am current ly testing using on ly one printer, a Canon LBP6750 with a PCL5e driver.
Print server OS: 2008 R2 Service Pack 1
Citrix XenApp 6 server OS: 2008 R2 Service Pack 1
Both servers have all the latests updates installed, with the exception of Internet Explorer 9.
