Windows Server 2003 SP2 and Canon Image Runner 3300

Mr. JYC
Hi,

I have a Windows Server 2003 SP1 and a Canon Image Runner 3300 multi
function printer attached to it.  The server is a print server.  When I tried
to install Windows Server 2003 SP2 on it, the printer went offline.  When I
removed SP2, the printer went back online.  I contacted Canon and they were
clueless.  Has anyone experienced this issue yet?  I understand because SP2
is pretty new.

Thank you for your help!

Could it be a firewall issue?
When SP2 is installed then firewall is switched on. Try stopping the
firewall service after installation  and see if that allows the printer
online again.

I've discovered the same issue with some network printers I have also.
Apparently SP2 changes the way SNMP works. As a workaround try this....

Open the printer properties and go to Ports. Select the Port and click
Configure Port. Uncheck the "SNMP Status Enabled" check box.

This brought my printers back online. Now I've got to dig a bit deeper to
find what the real fix is.

Sandy,

You are a hero. Couldn't get any help from the Canon UK site. All our 3300's
are now working again.

Idem for us, resolved by uncheck SNMP status (we use French version on Win 2003)
