Thanks for the response. At least some of the people that can save these
settings have only print permissions at the share level. Looking at the
various permissions, there is no correlation (contradiction, actually)
between the printer share permissions and what happens at the client. I
have found that the settings that I am changing/attempting to change are
in the HKCU\Printers\Connections\<,,server,printername>\DevMode key. I was wondering
(based on
that) if it was a registry permissions issue, but shouldn't basically
everyone be able to write keys to HKey_Current_User?
