That's another thing.  When logged onto the console I don't see any of
the others users printers.  Only there local LPT printers, if they have
any.  Since FP2 the way printers are being auto-created has caused this
issue.

So since I don't see her or any other users network printers I can
perform this task.

I suspect that her printers are not deleting after log off. Have her log
on,
connect the printers, make sure you can print, log her off. Log onto the
console as Admin. Check printers, view details, if you see JOAN printers
without an AUTOCREATED comment on them, they are stuck and will not
autocreate again. Further since the session has changed, she most likely
will not have access to print to them. Delete the printers and they
should
autocreate OK again. If it is stuck printers, I don't know what is
causing
it, but at least you will be pointed to the why.
