At first we used group policy to prevent the users from installing printers.
We removed the old printer and replaced it.
Now after turning off the group policy the users still cannot install the new print drivers or delete the old one
Any help would be great
Thanks

Would adding them to the Print Operators Group and restricting them from managing documents help. You need to supply a little more info...

Server OS would help. :)

Please turn on the group policy edit group policy from command line by typing "gpedit.msc"
when the group policy opens, go to User configuration/Administrative Templates/Control Panel/printers

Select "Prevent Addition of Printers" and "Disable or Not Configured" so that users can add printers.
Hope I have answered your question to your satisfaction, please revert if you still have problems
