Using Prnmngr to push printers for all users

  • Follow


we are in the process of replacing all network printers on our network. All 
printer names and IP addresses are going to change. I am trying to setup 
deployment jobs to push printers to all workstations and set default 
printers. I have been successful pushing a printer to a test workstation 
using my own credentials but, it only shows up under my profile. I have tried 
pushing printers to other workstations with no luck. On the test workstation 
I have logged on as several different users but, the printers only show up 
under my profile. Is there a switch I am missing that would make the printers 
available to all users ?

Using a domain?
Logon scripts?

As Shenan says: use logon scripts either by default domain policy 
logon/logoff or a vbs script called by a logon batch file located in Sysvol
