The Allow printers to be published machine setting should be configured correctly.
Determines whether the computer's shared printers can be published in Active Directory. If you enable this setting or do not configure it, users can use the "List in directory" option in the Printer's Properties' Sharing tab to publish shared printers in Active Directory. If you disable this setting, this computer's shared printers cannot be published in Active Directory, and the "List in directory" option is not available.
Fix:
(1) GPO: Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Printers\Allow printers to be published
(2) KEY: HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Printers\PublishPrinters
