I have users with laptops and they need to add local printers out in the field. Is there a way to allow people to add printers but not give them admin rights?

Could add them to the local power users group. defined as: Power Users possess most administrative powers with some restrictions. Thus, Power Users can run legacy applications in addition to certified applications. might still be to much authority for you. not sure what the real boundaries are for power users but they can install printers.
