Network Printers Disappearing
Ever since pushing out the DesktopCentral Agent to our domain computers, network printers are getting removed.
We have never had any problem with our network printer until Desktop Central Agent was installed.
I can see in the PushPrinterConnection.exe log where the printers are found and deployed and then five minutes later the printers get removed.
And now I have shutdown the Desktop Central server because I can no longer relay on this application to manage my desktops if it's going to continue to remove our printers.
