user sec. (W2K)

I have 365 laptops and they do not log into a network at all. no domain or workgroup. They are reg. users with no permissions. But I would like them to be able to load a printer only. This will be for a local user only. Does anyone have any ideas or policy...this is for a local reg. user only....?????

wow...365 laptops but not part of a domain...could be hell to manage them. Anyway, what do you mean by "able to load a printer only?" Do you mean they all use the same network printer or they each have a local printer of the same brand and model?

[twindude]

no network........ they will have to add them as they buy there own. I just would like to give them access to load a printer, print drivers only as a reg. user only. maybe a policy for the local box or something?. Not my idea of no network/domain....

[king_ging]

so you want to give them the rights to add printers(incl drivers) but not rights to install software?

[twindude]

that is true........right that would be awesome
