Is there a way in AD to automatically have a printer installed and mapped on
a client workstation when a person logs on?

Thanks

Paul,

I might suggest that you try a logon script. There are a
few different ways to do this. I might suggest that you
look into using a .vbs script combined with a Group
Policy. You might also try using a .bat or .cmd file.

Would you like some examples?

HTH,

Here is the vbs code to setup a new network printer.
Set objNetwork = Wscript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
objNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\PrintServer\Print
erName"

Copy this text into a notepad file then save as a .vbs
file.
