Windows 10 laptop computers are dispalying more printers than it is supposed to

We are migrating users from desktops with windows 10 to laptops with windows 10, but when we login to the laptop for the users, they are displaying printers that the user should not have.
Very strange issue.
When the user is on their desktop, the see the correct number of printers that the gpo is assigning to them but when thwy login on the laptop, they get extra printers that they should not have..
any ideas on this issue would be great.
Thanks

Do these new laptops carry the same usernames? This could be a permissions issue if you're setting up new accounts that haven't been placed into the proper groups for the purpose of the GPO.
Also go to Network and Sharing Center, Advanced Sharing Options, and turn Discovery devices OFF.  That should stop that.
