Problem

Printing from client computer to a Plot server running Windows 2008 R2 fails when logged on as Administrator as well as ordinary domain user. When Printing on plot server is fine using InterPlot as well and Windows printing.


Solution

Part 1)

Change of privileges on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControl
Set\Control\SecurePipeServers\winreg to Everyone:Read made that Domain users were able to plot from client computers.
Problem however remained when logged in as domain user.

Part 2)
Disable UAC on the server .
Then also recreate printers on the server without UAC.
