CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1101) — Question 400

After a new network printer is installed and added to the print server, users are unable to install the printer. However, the technician is able to install the printer when logged in to a user's computer as an administrator. Which of the following is the best option to allow all users to print to the new printer?

Answer options

• A. Install all applicable print drivers on the print server.
• B. Map the users to a print share for driver installation.
• C. Give all users temporary administrator rights to install the new printer.
• D. Remotely log in to all users’ computers and install the printer.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because installing all applicable print drivers on the print server ensures that users can access the correct drivers when they attempt to install the printer. Option B does not address the driver issue directly, C is not practical or secure, and D is time-consuming and inefficient.
