From: Conley on 13 May 2005 12:53 We have a 2003 TS and 10 networked printers. The printers are setup on the TS via IP address ports. Some users complain that they loose their default printer. I their a script I can use set the clients default printers at logon? Thanks
From: Vera Noest [MVP] on 13 May 2005 17:34 Setting the default printer is easiest done within the users logon script. You'll need some sort of utility to do this: Defprint.exe controls local printers (local to the TS), Con2prt.exe controls network printers, use a KiXtart script, or use rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry. Examples (check for correct syntax!) DefPrint.exe /d "HP OfficeJet" con2prt.exe \\PrintServer\printer01 SetDefaultPrinter ("\\TS\printer01") rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /y /in \\PrintServer\Printer01 189105 - How to add printers with no user interaction in Windows http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=189105 Defprint.exe can be downloaded here: http://www.dcug.de/phpnuke/html/modules.php? name=Downloads&d_op=MostPopular con2prt.exe is part of the NT Resource Kit.
