Where does Windows store each users printers in each users profile? I am
trying to add printers to multiple profiles without having to install the
printer on every profile. Any ideas?

Without having to log on each persons profile. Thats what I meant to say.

If you want an easy way to add printers you can use a vb script.

Set WshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
WshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection \\printserver\myprinter

Change the UNC to your server and printer share and the script will add the
print.

Hope this helps,
Adrian

Hello David!

Try con2prn in addition with the logon scripts.

e.g.:
con2prt /c \<Servername>\<Shared-Printername>

Have a look at:

I think con2prn is from the ResourceKit
