| | Re: Still Cannot Add Network Printer - Access Denied It's not a printer setting, it's a server share, file setting. I think you will need to turn off Simple File Sharing (any explorer windows, uncheck [I am on a domain so do not have this OS] ), then open the system drive, drill down to \windows\system32\spool\drivers. Hold down the shift key, select the folder, right click and set sharing permissions.
