Network Printer

This nifty utility installs a default network printer for all users profiles, both for existing users and any new users that have not logged in yet. Once a new user logs in, the computer creates a new profile and the printer will be automatically be create for them and this script also sets the printer as default for new users, existing users or currently logged on user.

 

This script is intended for Windows XP computer that are joined in a Domain where the printer is hosted on a file server.  I have not tested this on Workgroup infrastruture but it should still work.  If you have a local printer (USB, LPT) directly attached to your computer then you do not need this script as locally attached printer will have the printer be available for all users.

 

Program Features:

  • Easy to use
  • Run once, set it and forget it
  • Printer will be available for all user profiles regardless whether the user profile exist or not.
  • Ideal for lab environment
  • Avoid complexity of Group Policy as this software makes the printer assigned to computer rather than user.
  • You still manage only 1 printer queue on the server
  • Save time by not having to visit the computer to install the printer for a new user who just logged in
  • Software is a stand-alone application which does not need to be install.  Leaves zero footprint behind
  • Users, even if they are local admin, will not be able to delete printer that was added by this utility
  • One of a kind software on the market and the price is a steal.
