Hi!

In our office we have about 10 xp pro workstations connected to a server running nt 4.0 server.

When a domain user is logged in to a xp workstation and tries to add a network printer, he/she will get an error noting that a local policy prohibits this action.

If I login as administrator, I can add the network printer. After that the domain user can also install the network printer.

Appearently the domain user is not allowed to install the printer drivers, but where do I give them those rights?

I do not want to install the drivers manually on each workstation, because I would go nuts running to every workstation to set every thing up, when for example, a new printer is installed.

Any advice would be kindly appreciated.
