Mandatory Profiles and Printers

Is it possible to have different printers(network and
local) for different workstations when the users all
share the same mandatory profile? I have 7 workstations
(XP Pro) that need to print to different printers. About
50 users share these 7 workstations. I have setup a
mandatory profile for these 50 users so that I can
control desktop settings and screensaver. The only
problem is that these 7 workstations don't print to the
same printer. If I setup all possible printers in the
mandatory profile, is there a registry setting that could
overide the default printer setting in the mandatory
profile?
 
It should be possible to set this with a policy or through logon script. A
mandatory profile can be changed but the settings are lost when the user
logs off. So, when the user logs on and gets the mandatory profile you can
then set the default printer within the profile for that logon session.
 
How??

Admir
