[THIN] Re: Flex profiles and printer assignments

Steve

Flex profiles are just mandatory profiles, with some selective bits of
HKCU or the profile folder structure dynamically saved (at logoff) and
loaded (after profile loading) at login. So you could just include the
HKCU\Printers hierarchy in the registry.

And you could either allow the user to do their own printer mapping, or
pre-empt this by clever scripting, to start the ball rolling.

The flex profile model just means you can have mandatory profiles for
most things (and all the associate advantages that go along with that),
yet include personalisable stuff - on an *ongoing* basis - in the users'
profiles.
