Hi

On w2k domain using both w2k and XP systems
All PCs have same image(either w2k or XP)
Some users are able to add local printer and some can't.
The users that cannot add have the option greyed out.

I assumed this must have something to do with how the
network/sytem admin has setup the user accounts.
They say all accounts are the same.

Anyone have an opinion.

Thanks for that.
I sjould have given more detail originally.
You lost your 20 bills.
All profiles are local and are set to poweruser group.

An account has to have LOCAL administrative rights in
order to install local devices, including printers.
Since you said your domain admin set up the accounts, $20
says roaming profiles are being used.
The admin will have to install the printers themselves or
generate a script to make the user account a local admin.
