Cannot install network printer 0x6 Invalid Handle


running 2 2008 r2 clustered print servers.  have workstation able install printers 1 resource not other.  failing resource returns 0x6 invalid handle on printer try install.  other workstations have tested not experiencing issue. 

i able add printer using local port option, attempts aside connect share not work. 

any ideas?  thanks.

hello,


did research have not yet found solid solution. suggest try common troubleshooting steps.


delete contents of following folders , restart spooler service.

c:\windows\system32\spool\printers
c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers


backup , delete registry key: hkey_local_machine\system\currentcontrolset\control\print\monitors. refer microsoft kb article below.


when try print, error message reports, 'test page fail print handle invalid'

if still no luck, suggest reinstall windows scratch on client machine.


thanks
