I know with RES PowerFuse users can be assigned printers based on their
subnet or partial clientname.
I'm sure it can be scripted, but I don't know how to do it. Wasn't there
a thread on this not too long ago?

How are the printers assigned to the users and mapped in their profile?

Subject: [THIN] Best way to deal with Printers at different locations
and
travelling exec's
Any ideas you guys have would be helpful.
Scenario :
WAN - 9 sites.
Central site has multiple Terminal Servers(2K) to which clients at each
site
connect(RDP).
Printers at each site are on own print servers.
Security settings for printers set by user groups/OU for location
members.
i.e. Sheffield users can only see Sheffield printers.
Problem : We have a number of Corporate users who travel from site to
site.
Using security groups we can give them either - No access to any of the
printers, or access to all printers at all sites regardless of where
they
log on (this has resulted in confidential documents being printed at
another
site!!) - Users are losers. Nuff said.
Anyway, we have tried to use logon scripts (we can pick out the location
easily by IP address) to add and remove the printers dynamically on
location
but this tends to be a little unreliable.
Question is should I persist with logon scripts as being the only way or
is
there a simple or complicated alternative that I've missed???
Any help much appreciated.
