Hi there !

I have - hopeful - a small question.
I'm administrating a small office network, a win2k server as fileserver and internet gateway and some win2k client machines.
On ome of the client machines a HP Office Jet is installed, and shared.
Via directory service the printer is available and works fine.
But it is not possible to set this printer permanently as default printer.
There are some other printer also - the pdf printers and a tektronix phaser .
After logging out from a client and logging in again the default printer is resetted to this tektronix phaser.

Has anyone an idea how to set the HP as default printer permanently ?

Thanks for your help !

Roland
 
I would look at users group membership to the local machine and if that user has a profile on the machine.
