Problem with Distrubting Default Printer settings from Print server to networked computers
Am I wrong in thinking that you can make printer setting changes on your print server and those changes should take effect on the networked computers without having to reinstall the printer on each computer... No matter what change I make they do not get passed on to networked computers. We have a Toshiba printer and several Xerox and HP printers, all running in a windows 2003 server environment.
Unfortunately, it does not work that way. To change the default settings on each PC you will need to use Group Policy and/or a Login Script depending on what you are trying to accomplish.
