Hello, I work in a secondary school. &nbsp;Students have roaming profiles. &nbsp; We have an issue whereby students, and sometimes successfully if the printer driver is installed on the local computer they are sitting at, &nbsp;are able to print to print devices in other classrooms.<br />

So, can anyone explain to me how a printer attaches to a roaming profile, and how can we remove printers from a roaming profile.<br />

Networked print devices and roaming profile explanation.

A printer is a peripheral which makes a persistent human readable representation of graphics or text on paper or similar physical media. Traditional printers are being used more for special purposes, like printing photographs or artwork, and are no longer a must-have peripheral; 3D printing has become an area of intense interest, allowing the creation of physical objects. An image scanner is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image. Hand-held scanners, where the device is moved by hand, have evolved from text scanning "wands" to 3D scanners used for industrial design, reverse engineering, test and measurement, orthotics, gaming and other applications.
