Printers assigned in this manner are user specific, i.e the setting for the printer mapping is saved in the user profile. There are a number of methods for assigning printers to users. The current MS recommendation is to publish printers using AD and have the users browse them and map the ones they need. Regards, Steve Greenberg Thin Client Computing 34522 N.

All network printers are housed on another windows 2003 server (File/Print Server). I basically did the following - can someone please tell me if this is the wrong way to go about it... Logged onto Terminal Server as admin. Browsed to \\fileprinterserver\printers All network printers listed. Selected all printers and right clicked, then select connect This created all network printers on Terminal Server box I was hoping all these printers would be available to all users but they are not (the user would simply set a default themselves). When a user logs on they get no printers. I did the above procedure in install mode. We don't support local printers. We are not using Citrix, just Terminal Services - what am I doing wrong?? Whats the easiest way to have all network printers available for all users by utilising existing file/print server?? Dumb question from a newbie Thanks Rose _________________________________________________________________ SEEK: Now with over 50,000 dream jobs!
