Since we installed XP SP2, a printer notification balloon
pops up to all my users. They're not administrators,
therefore they can't shut it off. Where can I shut that
off thru GPO? (or otherwise)
 
Print Job Notifications

Start | Run | Type: control printers | OK |
File | Server Properties | Advanced tab |
UNCheck:
Show informational notifications for local printers
[[Displays the status of print jobs in a pop-up window, when printing to a
stand-alone network printer or to a printer attached directly to your
computer. This pop-up window appears near the notification area of the user
who sent the print job.]]

Show informational notifications for network printers
[[Displays the status of print jobs in a pop-up window, when printing to a
printer that is attached to another computer. This pop-up window appears
near the notification area of the user who sent the print job.]]

Apply | OK

Did you see the part about users not being
administrators? I know how to do that...I want to know
how to deploy via GPO...
