We created a GPO printing script to the computer OU as a startup Script but
it did not run. Everything seems to be fine including permission. I can run
the script locally, and it will install the printer for me. What else can I
check regarding this issue. Thanks.
 
Are you sure the script did not run, or ran but didn't do what you want?
Try adding an "eventcreate" command to your script - this will add an entry
into either the Application or System event logs so you can verify if the
script actually runs or not.

By default, printer connections are user specific, so when you run it as a
"Startup" script, no user is logged on and thus no printer is added.

However, you can add a printer "globally" - for all users - see
