Determines whether the system prunes (deletes from Active Directory) printers that are not automatically republished. This policy applies to printers running operating systems other than Windows 2000 and to Windows 2000 printers published outside of their domain
This entry stores the setting of the Prune printers that are not automatically republished Group Policy. Group Policy adds this entry to the registry when you enable the Prune printers that are not automatically republished policy. If you disable the policy or set it to Not configured, Group Policy deletes the entry from the registry and the system behaves as though the value is 0.
The Windows 2000 pruning service prunes printer objects
from Active Directory when the computer that published them does
not respond to contact requests. Computers running
Windows 2000 detect and republish deleted printer objects when
they rejoin the network. However, because
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0 | The policy disabled or not configured, or it is enabled and set to Never. Printer objects that are not automatically republished are never pruned. |
| 1 | The policy is enabled and set to Only if Print Server is found. The system prunes printer objects that are not automatically republished only if the print server responds, but the printer is unavailable. |
| 2 | The policy is enabled and set to Whenever printer is not found. The system prunes printer objects that are not automatically republished whenever the host computer does not respond, just as it does with Windows 2000 printers. |
To change the value of this entry, use Group Policy. This entry corresponds to the Prune printers that are not automatically republished policy (Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Printers).
Note
This entry applies to printers published by using Active Directory Users and Computers or Pubprn.vbs. It does not apply to printers published by using Printers in Control Panel.
Tip
If you disable automatic pruning, remember to delete printer objects manually whenever you remove a printer or print server.
