| I am struggling with auditing one printer. I went to
| printer properties under Auditing and turned on auditing
| for a particular username. However, I got the
| message, "The current Audit Policy for this computer does
| not have auditing turned on. If this computer gets audit
| policy from the domain, please ask a domain admin to turn
| on auditing using Group Policy Editor. Otherwise, use the
| Local Computer Policy Editor to configure the audit policy
| locally on this computer."
|
| I'm trying to figure out what I need to do under Group
| Policy Editor. I am on the actual print server.
