Add Printer for Local Users
- Thread starter byrne1
- Start date
The best way would be to use login scripts or Active Directory group policies but you can also do this:
Choose "Local Printer" instead of "Network Printer" when you run the wizard (uncheck automatically detect) and then choose "Create New Port" (TCP\IP Port). Now, enter the IP address of the network printer.
The printer will now show up for anyone that logs into the system.
Note: You will need to select the printer driver manually since it is not automatically picking it up from the print server.
