KB 936608 - A shared printer that is hosted on a Windows Server 2003-based computer does not work correctly when you use the "Point and Print" feature on a Windows Vista-based client computer

Having trouble with 'Point and Print' with Vista? This KB/hotfix might be for you!

SYMPTOMS
Consider the following scenario. A shared printer is hosted on a Microsoft Windows Server 2003-based computer. On a Windows Vista-based client computer, you use the "Point and Print" feature to connect to this printer. In this scenario, the printer does not work correctly.

CAUSE
This problem occurs because registry information for the printer is overwritten on the Windows Vista-based client computer. This registry information is replaced by the registry information for the Windows Server 2003 version of the printer driver. Windows Vista does not correctly merge the dependent registry files.

This is a Vista hotfix. The Windows 2003 server is behaving correctly.
