I have a server running Windows 2000 Server and several workstations running Windows 2000. If I log into one of the workstations as the administrator for that machine and set up a local printer, the printer then shows up for every user that logs onto that machine. My problem is that when I log in as the administrator for the same machine and install a printer through the print server (windows 2000 server with the printer installed via TCP/IP), the printer shows up fine for the administrator, but doesn't show up for any other user on the machine. Everyone has permission to use the printer and they can install it themselves, but I would like to have it already installed because I have about 30 users that use the computer on and off. Any ideas?
