About this tag
This tag covers discussions about migrating print servers from older Windows Server versions like 2008R2 to newer ones such as Windows Server 2022. A recurring theme is the Enhanced Point and Print driver behavior change in Windows Server 2022, where the Microsoft-provided driver may replace the actual printer driver (e.g., Xerox) during client installation.
