Okay it try it. Say you have a student and 2 computer labs. Is it possible to configure the printer at a computer level? So that if student logs in from lab1 their default printer is printer1. However if they log in from a computer in lab2, their default printer is printer2??<br />

Yeah, you can also add computers to the security groups.. &nbsp;then its the computer that gets the apply policy on the group policy that runs the con2prt command...<br />

I am in the process of setting up a windows 2000 enviromment. I have one printer server, and hundreds of users, with several printers. I have configured the printers okay. How do I set each users default printer up to point to one of the configured ones, so that each user that is logging on does not have to find and install a default printer???<br />

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
