You didn't mention the use of pushprinterconnections.exe. Are you using it?

"Client computers running Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows Server 2003
must use the PushPrinterConnections.exe tool in a startup script (for
per-computer connections) or in a logon script (for per-user connections)."

Subject: Using Group Policy Preferences to push printers

 

Hi Folks,

 

I'm starting to use Group Policy preferences now.  I"m trying to push down
printers for some users.  Under the User GPP, I set the shared printer to
"create".  I refresh the policy at the desktop, reboot, nothing happens.  I
can install the printer using the traditional method however.

 

Suggestions?  Windows 2008 server, XP SP3 machines.
