Thoughts off the top of my head:
1. You say you have branches on a WAN – do you have additional logon servers at each branch? If so, are these policies replicating to these servers? 2. If not, could there be a timeout issue over the WAN? 3. Check endstations with RSoP (along with excellent suggestion made by James R to check endstation Event Viewer logs) – you can go into a lot of detail by going into Applications and Services Logs -> Microsoft -> Windows -> GroupPolicy 4. Also, you might find you need Computer->Policies->Admin Templates->System/Group Policy->User Group Policy Loopback processing mode (merge) enabled. Be careful testing this. Michelle K.

Sometimes there is a (hidden) elevation prompt that needs admin access to install a driver. Does anything not show in the event logs when they log in and fail to get printers?

I have some users that float between WAN’s (or branches). Why would these floaters not see the printers assigned to the workstations when they log in?
