Event ID 38 — AD DS Printer Publishing

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

You can publish printer information to Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) so that users can search for printers by location or other attributes. Publishing a printer creates a PrintQueue object in AD DS as a child of the print server computer account.
