I have 2 hp v40's setup in 2 different locations. Windows 2000 is running on the laptop and the printers are local. The laptop has a docking station at each location. Users cannot add local printers to their machine - an administrator has to add the printers. The printer drivers were installed on the laptop by an administrator. The user took the machine to the other location plugged into the docking station with the other HP v40 attached via USB and the system prompted them to add the printer. Why did the system ask him to install the printer if the drivers and software were already on the laptop?

Thanks for any information.
