[Guest]

Does anybody have a good script that will install a printer from a print
server? Thanks

Nevermind after much digging, I found one that is working great. Thanks

Or maybe use the new feature in W2K3 R2 to use a GPO

I planned on using GPO and setup a User logon script to map printers based on
their location or department. What new feature is in W2K3 R2 that is
different than using the logon scripts? Thanks

Ever used that in a productive environment? I wouldn't since it lacks
some real basic functionality (like setting a default printer). I'll
stick with the scripts...

If you mention "features" like this, don´t forget to set the
required tags, aswell as the according acronyms

No, I use scripts (like most of us)...

But maybe sometime in the future if they improve it ;-)
