Giving Users Printer Install Privileges

[626klze]

I have been searching w/out any luck,

I want to be able to allow users on my network to install printers without being given full admin privileges. Is there a way to modify their privileges somewhere?

Thanks for any suggestions,

Nope,

I have a process to logon as a admin locked down and then reboot. If you find anything let me know I am curious.

I was going to use DEVCON to look for printer and install the driver but I have not had good results.

here by cmd file for use with devcon utiltiy.

----hp450.cmd----

set hwid=

for /F USEBACKQ %%l in ( `HP450.bat` ) do SET hwid=%%l

SET hwid="%hwid:~0,21%"

devcon install c:\winnt\inf\hp450.INF %hwid%

----end hp450.cmd----

----hp450.bat----

@echo off

devcon find * | find /i "HP450"

----end hp450.bat----

if the printer you want added is a network printer with the print que on a server all you have to do is go to \\servername and the user can right click on the printer and say connect and he does not have to have admin rights.

I think for adding a printer on a local computer you can do it if you are a poweruser too.
