This article was previously published under Q150606 SYMPTOMS
After you install an Apple Laserwriter on your network and set it up
for spooling through Windows NT, the following message appears in Event
Viewer:
Event id: 4024 Source: MacPrint Type: Error
The printer <printer name> could not be registered on the AppleTalk
Network
CAUSE
The share name created for this printer on the Windows NT Server is the
same as the printer name.
Apple Laserwriter printers connected to the network with a network
interface card (NIC) or other adapter will broadcast themselves on the
network. If the printer is created on a Windows NT Server for use by other
clients on the network, and the share name is the same as the printer name,
the printer will not be able to register itself on the network.
RESOLUTION
Change the share name of the printer to something other than the printer
name.
