[Samba] Can't connect to CUPS printer from Windows 11 (update)

[Per Gunnarsson]

There was a missing registry key on my Windows 11.
Some Thomas Forde suggested:


        Registry Setting for the above GPO

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Printers\RPC]

There are 2 values that can be configured:

|RpcUseNamedPipeProtocol| REG_DWORD

0: RpcOverTcp (default)
1: RpcOverNamedPipes


After addind this to my registry with regedit, I could connect to

my Samba printer using Windows 11


Regards,


Per Gunnarsson
