You didn't have this issue before SP2? AFAIK, you should see this all the time (SP2 or not, even w/2000) when a non-admin user connects, provided the printer hasn't been installed already as by someone with admin.

Nope. Worked fine, prior. I will play around with that and see if I can get a pattern though. It does only affect certain drivers, so maybe it wasn't supposed to be working before and now correctly isn't working.

It's a client side issue, no server changes would fix it aside from making the user a member of Domain Admins, thereby giving local admin. That's most likely not what you REALLY want to do though.

It would be solved by using [PRINT$] share and storing all your printer
drivers on the server. A normal user will be able to connect to a network
printer but won't be able to install any drivers. The only users of mine who
have to be administrator are the ones who need to use a printer which will
not store its drivers on the server.

I do this already. Used to work great. :) -- David Schlenk Operating Systems Analyst Bethel University Saint Paul, Minnesota [EMAIL PROTECTED]
