Hi Matthew

I'm wondering if anyone had anwsered your question, as i'm also seeking for such a solution for my environment

With regards

The resource kit has a tool setprinter.exe where you can set all the
security descriptors the same for all printers. Basically you need to
configure one printer with the UI with the changes, then read the
descriptor, then set all the printers the same.

config "PrinterName" with UI
To see current settings:
SetPrinter -show PrinterName 3

To change security settings (see "Security Descriptor String Format" in MSDN
or SDKdocs for details)
:
*** WARNING: this could make the print queue inaccessable and require the
use of a registry editor to fix ***
SetPrinter PrinterName 3
"pSecurityDescriptor=O:BAG:DUD:(A;CIIO;RC;;;CO)(A;OIIO;GA;;;CO)(A;;SWRC;;;WD
)(A;CIIO;GX;;;WD)(A;;LCSWSDRCWDWO;;;BA)(A;OICIIO;GA;;;BA)(A;;LCSWSDRCWDWO;;;
PU)(A;OICIIO;GA;;;PU)"

To leave the settings unchanged (but what's the point then):
SetPrinter PrinterName 3 "pSecurityDescriptor=NULL"

here's the resource kit.
