    Hi,

     

    I'm trying to print from ASP.NET but I can't get any printers to map for the ASPNET user.

     

    I've done the following to try to get printers to map:

     

    1. Change Application Pool identity from Network Service to Local System2. Copy HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Printers\Connections (for valid user with printer mappings) to HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT

    Still the printers aren't mapped though, unless I log onto the server myself and run it, in which case it is able to use the printer mappings for my login.

     

    This has resulted in ASPNET being able to see mapped printers on the server for another user when they are logged in or have a remote session going, but it won't map it's own printers. Does anyone know what else I need to do to get printers to map for ASPNET user?

     

    Thanks,

    ibeme
