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:
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 is 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. The question does not mention if GPMC is installed on server 2, so I assume that it does
not deploy the GPO because it had no GPMC on server 2.
GPMC is not installed by default.
NOT C.
Server1 has the Group Policy Management feature installed. So, why would I install it again ?
Sorry. Server2 has the Group Policy Management feature installed. So, why would I install it again ?
I think the question was written with some mistakes which lead to MISUNDERSTANDING.
“…. 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……”
should have been written (Attention: a comma was changed to a point)
” … 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….”
If the sentences are changed as above, the answer is C.
We can create a GPO without GPMC, we need only GPO Editor
“If you have the Print Server role installed on the server, you should be able to access the Print Management Admin tool from Server manager –> Tools.
When you open the admin console…
In the left pane, click Print Servers, click the applicable print server, and click Printers.
In the center pane, right-click the applicable printer, and then click Deploy with Group Policy. In the Deploy with Group Policy dialog box, click Browse, and then choose or create a new GPO for storing the printer connections.
Specify whether to deploy the printer connections to users, or to computers:
Click Add.
Click OK.”

But we need GPMC for publish gpo in domain
