non admin user cannot connect to network printer
Hello-
I have a sticky problem that is causing me grief. In one of our labs I this command to connect a network printer and make it available to all users of the computer: rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /ga /n\\server\%printername% The command seems to have worked because when i connect with any user that has admin rights the printer shows up and works just fine. However when i log in with the normal account that would be used on the computer which is just a normal user account the printer does NOT show up. Also when I browse for the printer and right click on it and click connect to connect it manually I get the following error: "You do not have sufficient acces to your computer to connect to the selected printer". When I add this user to the local administrators group and log off and log in, as I said the printer shows up and works. Then if i remove them from the local administrators group and log off and log back on it does not and will not even let me manually connect to it. I am assuming that the error is why the printer is not showing up. Does anyone have any ideas what I can do to give that user sufficient access to the computer to connect to the printer? Client OS is XP Pro SP2 Thanks! |
