With Server 2008 R2 and 2012R2, we were able to have the *.sep files stored in a location outside of System32, C:\SepFiles\coversheet.sep. As long as the folder had the name SepFiles it was working.

We recently installed a new 2016 Server and have our Windows 10 machines installed with printers from the server. They are not getting the cover sheets.

I could find a tech note regarding the SepFiles in Server 2012 and 2012R2, nothing for print services on 2016.

I know that I should be able to put the *.sep file in the system32 folder, but am hesitant as we had issues with 2012R2 deleting the *.sep files from the system32 folder without warning. The alternate location of c:\SepFiles has been rock solid without issues.

Has anyone had any luck with *.sep files outside of the system32 folder on Server 2016?

Thank you.

  • I've no experience with this at all, but have you checked permissions on the folder to make sure the services involved in printing have appropriate access to the folders? Dec 23, 2016 at 0:02
