Win2k TS using RDP 5.2 and printer redirection. I want to stop the
auto-install of geneic text printers. I have enabled "prevent users from
installing printer drivers" in local security settings. I have deleted the
printers and drivers but they auto-install as soon as a person with that
printer logs on. Any ideas? Could you delete the dependent files
associated with the driver?? Thanks for any help

Rename the ntprint.inf file on the server to .old and only rename it back
when you need to add an actual driver or printer to that server.
This trick should prevent automatic installation of trusted drivers.
