Shared Printer issue in Domain Member Windows 7 system.
Hello All,
I am having HP Laser Jet Printer(Shared) which is connected to Domain Member Windows 7 System. I am not able to Print any thing from other System. Its hangs on Printing Screen.
The Same Printer works if i joined the System to Workgroup.
Please help me to fix the issue.

What are your sharing and security settings for that printer if shared
in the domain under printer properties? What are your general advanced
sharing options for domain networks?
Can you access a shared folder on this machine fine from another
machine in the domain?

Hi,
Check Windows 7 Network and Sharing Center\Advanced sharing settings\Domain\File and printer sharing\Turn on file and printer sharing is seleceted.
Also you can try:
1 Temporarily disable the all firewalls or anti-virus applications on both server side and client side.
2
Try adding the printer as a "local printer" in Windows 7:
Start > Devices and Printers > Add a printer > Add a local printer > Create a new port and in the drop-down box make sure "Local Port" is selected > Next > then under "Enter a port name" enter the path to the networked printer -\\computer
name\printer name > OK
Furthermore, have a look at the following article link:

If you are able to access the shared folders and the shared printer
from the remote PC it is probably a driver problem. Did you try to
remove the printer from the remote PC and reconnect to the printer and
let it reinstall the printer driver?
