Publisher 2003 printing

The system consists of Windows 2003 servers and Windows
XP clients

The following script is manually run via a batch file
which is stored on a management server, the script is
amended for server\printer name according to location.

The Script:

start /wait sc \\%ComputerName% start spooler
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /ga /c\\%
ComputerName% /n\\lsr002\MSA012-P1$
start /wait sc \\%ComputerName% stop spooler
start /wait sc \\%ComputerName% start spooler

All seemed to be working fine until we tried to print
from Microsoft Publisher 2003
And we received this message:

Publisher cannot find the printer"\\computername\printer"
for this publication.


This computer will print from a wide range of
applications but not this one!

Argh, you have not got your system configured correctly.
Publisher will always find the weakness in your system.
There are no known printing issues in any versions of Publisher, only poorly
configured networks and bad printer driver.

Any ideas? Where things have gone wrong.

I believe that I am having a similar problem. When I go to print my document
in microsoft publisher, an error message comes up saying the following: "A
printer has not been installed on the system. Install a printer for publisher
to use. The fonts in your publication may look different as a result of the
printer selection." It then makes me click ok but does not tell me how to do
this! I know I have installed my printer correctly because it works for all
other programs, and it tells me that it is installed correctly. Did you find
a solution?
