Note Internet Printing can be configured through Group Policy as well as via the Internet Services Manager. If there is a conflict<br />
between the Group Policy settings and those in the Internet Service Manager, the Group Policy settings take precedence. If you<br />
remove Internet Printing via the Internet Services Manager, be sure to verify that it won't be re-enabled by either local or domain<br />
group policies. (The default Group Policy neither enables nor disables Internet Printing.) In the MMC Group Policy snap-in, click<br />
Computer Configuration, click Administrative Templates, click Printing, and then click Web-based Printing.<br />
Note Unless you have a mission-critical reason to use the .htr functionality, you should remove the .htr extension.<br />
