Do you have a GPO in place that would remove the printer?

Well, we’ve got it shared off our DC, so I was trying to do it that way. Hmm… 
guess I could redirect LPT2 (it’s already pointing lpt1 to another printer 
hooked up to a PC) and point it at that.

Have you tried to setup the printer and point it to LPT1: and then redirect it 
to the IP of the printer?

Ok, I have a user who is currently an admin on her box. She normally prints to 
a network printer, but for some reason, if I take her out of the local admins 
group, it will remove the network printer from her machine and disallow her 
adding it back. But if I add her back to the local admins group next time she 
logs back in, the network printer is there and is the default again.

 

What’s going on and how do I fix it? I’m trying to keep from having every user 
be a local admin, but apparently if they’re going to print to a network 
printer, they’re going to have to be. At least that’s what it seems like…. Do I 
need to do anything special to give her access to the network printer w/o 
making her a local admin?

 

Thanks!
