We seem to be running into an issue at our facility with printers when trying to install a printer with a new driver or update an existing printer to a new driver. In this particular example I am installing a Xerox AltaLink with the GPD version. I am able to install printers with the Xerox GPD PCL 6 driver version v3.6.433.6.0.0, but if I try to update or install a printer to any other driver it gets an RPC failure and kills the print spooler. I have tried driver versions (PCL6) v5.433.6.0, v5.645.5.0, v5.733.11.0, and v5.810.8.0 and they all fail. Below is the output from trying to upgrade the driver. As a note, these machines all have the latest C++ redist. Anyone help is appreciated.
