Unable to connect the printer , Access Denied






Issue


Under Windows 2000/XP based environment ,whenever i try to take printing from my network printer (printer attached to other windows based system) , I was prompted by the error: 

" Unable to connect the printer , access denied , printer could not be started" .

Solution


Now the problem is resolved permanently , with simple steps.
  • 1.) Go to the computer with which you have attached the Printer .
  • 2.) Open its Computer management dialog box by Right click onto MY Computer ICON and choose "Manage" option .
  • 3.) It will open the Computer Management windows .
  • 4.) Go to Local users and computer and Click on USERS .
  • 5.) There will be guest account , which is disabled while you working onto domain/workgroup environment .
  • 6.) Just enable this "Guest " User account , by clicking onto it and goto Properties , then General Tab , Uncheck the "Account is disabled" option and restart , that Computer with which you have attached the printer physically.
  • 7.)Done.



Printers should now say "Ready".

Thanks to MJK for this tip.
