Printing - So far no has sovled this.

I am trying to print to a certain printer which is connected via IP. I can
ping the printer, install and reinstall the printer, browse to the printer
web interface via IP but I cannot print to it. All of the other computers in
the office can print to it except me. I checked my event logs and I did
notice this warning: tcp ip has reached the security limit imposed on the
number of concurrent tcp connect attempts (event ID 4226). I have been
searching all week all over the internet and no one has a solution to this
issue. The Microsoft support center is suggesting that there could be a
virus on the machine. I ran my antivirus only to rule it out and no virus.
When I print a test page I immediately get an error saying test page failed
to print. Would like some input or from any other teacher over there. I
also called the printers tech support (Konica Minolta) and they are stumped
as well. They suggested to reload windows but I want to use all of my
resources before I do that. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Still nothing. When I print a test page I get a "test page failed to print"
immediately. Anything else I can try.

Try spooling a print job from another User account on the PC
to see if it's a Profile specific issue. I'd probably just do a TCP
reset on the PC if using another account also fails.

Have you bee able to print in the past?
Did your network get busy and lots of user printer and move and copy
files/folders/Doc?
Are you able to access the Network shares?
If the above yes then your network resources are okay!
But if it is not then your network may be under attack or a heavy usage from
users inside the network.

Try to clear the printer Queue it may be jamed by lots of Docs waiting to be
printed but ask the users first or do it after Work hours.
Turn the Spool service OFF then ON and see if you are able to print.

Open the Registry Editor by typing in the Run command:
regedit click [OK] and locate this Key and edit the Value for
"TcpNumConnections"
[-]HKEY_LOCALL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters =
"TcpNumConnections" DWORD 00011170 and edit this value
to number of connections you need.
Reboot your machine and try to print.
HTH,
