Thank you Jamie...that's exactly what I thought. I saw a MS article on how to manipulate either a folder or registry key for driver installs...i.e. giving rights to install anything, not just local printers, which is risky but seems the only way to do so. I appreciate the reply...have a great Monday! Shane M.

You could, however, use the new GPP preferences to create the printer for them. Don't know if that helps you out much, but it is an option.

I think I know the answer to this, but wanted to run this by everyone. Is there a way to grant users the ability to add LOCAL printers withOUT making them local Admins? They are power users. Thanks in advance. Shane M.
