Network printers appearing on XP client

[ScottL]

Hello All,

I am having a weird probelm. I am trying to roll out a Dell workstation
with Windows XP SP2(latest patches)on it. It is a fresh build. The
issue I am having is that this client is picking up all the network
printers and putting them in the local Printer and Faxes window.

They are "not" labeled "Auto Created". I have also checked to make sure
that the "Automatically search for network folders and printers was not
checked for all users under folder options and I also double checked
and made the sure the registry entry was set correctly also.

I have even rebuilt this box twice. All user accounts on this machine
pick up the printers, and none have Admin priv's other than
Adminstrator.

Any thoughts or clues? Like I had stated this is XP Sp2 with all the
latets patches as of today 02/02/2006. We are running a SBS 2003
server on an All XP client net. There are no other apps on the box
other than office XP. We have about 60 other workstation locally and
none that I have seen are doing this.

Thanks for your help.

-Scott

The solution to my problem was renaming the workstation.

I love it when I can answer my own posts. Oh well. At least the
info will be here for somebody else if they run into it.
