You need to view the Deployed Printers node in GPO1

Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains two
servers named Server1 and Server2 that run Windows Server 2012 R2. Server1 has the Group Policy
Management feature installed. Server2 has the Print and Document Services server role installed.
On Server2, you open Print Management and you deploy a printer named Printer1 by using a Group
Policy object (GPO) named GPO1.When you open GPO1 on Server1, you discover that the Deployed
Printers node does not appear.

You need to view the Deployed Printers node in GPO1.
What should you do?

A.
On Server1, modify the Group Policy filtering options of GPO1.

B.
On a domain controller, create a Group Policy central store.

C.
On Server2, install the Group Policy Management feature.

D.
On Server1, configure the security filtering of GPO1.

Explanation:
Pre-Requisites
To use Group Policy for printer deployment you will need to have a Windows Active Directory
domain, and this article assumes that your Domain Controller is a Windows 2008 R2 Server. You will
also need the Print Services role installed on a server (can be on your DC), and you will be using the
Print Management and Group Policy Management consoles to configure the various settings. It’s
assumed that you have already followed Part One and have one or more printers shared on your
server with the necessary drivers, ready to deploy to your client computers.

This is a stupid question, however I think “C” is the correct answer for the following reasons:
The question indicates that a GPO named GPO1 was created on server 2 using “Group Policy Object Editor”, however it does not say if the GPO was linked to an OU and the only way to link the GPO to an OU or domain is to either create the GPO using ADUC or use GPMC (Group Policy Management Console) and link the GPO1 to the correct OU /Scope. GPO1 was created on Server 2, however Server 2 does not have GPMC, hence GPMC needs to be installed on Server 2 to scope GPO1

The answer does not make sense.

The question does not state that a new GPO has been created. When deploying printers using Print Management you can deploy to existing linked GPO’s, to existing un-linked GPO’s and you can create new GPO’s. Tested this and all of them showed in GPMC on Server 1.

If I am not mistaken Answer A & B can only be done on Administrative templates and answer D only effects to whom the GPO is applied to.

Having said this I cannot understand what the answer should be.
