I
am also having this issue with mandatory profiles. When I log in with an
mandatory account to a machine ( which has two three lexmark tcp/ip printers
installed on it ) how does it determine which printer is the one going to be
set as the default.
I
think the list of printers installed on an NT machine is stored in
:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers and the user
setting is stored in :
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Windows\Device ( another
list of printer stored in HKCU\Sw\MS\WinNT\PrinterPorts
How does the machine emunerate HKLM and decide which one is set as
default? Can we apply a weighting somehow to force it??

Hello,
i was wondering if anyone knows a way to have
machines print to a specific printer no matter who logs on. for
example we have a computer lab and each student has their own
account. they have a roaming profile so they can log into any
comuter in the school and retain settings etc. server is w2k sp2 and
workstations are w2k pro and nt 4.0. is there a way so when they log
into one of the lab computers it only captures the printers in the lab,
when they go to the library they only capture the library printers,
etc? could it possibly be in group policy for machines? any
help is greatly appreciated..
