Making printers apply to all users

after u looged into as administrator
load all drivers
give users rights to these printers

When you install the printer, install it as a local printer (not networked), don't print a test page after installing, it won't work. Next go into the printer properties and change the port from lpt1 to the networked port or IP. This is the simplest way to trick the OS into making the printer available to all new users.

I don't know what you really want to do, but first let me ask you something. Is it a domain or a workgroup what you have? If it's a domain, it is easy to pull printer installation whenever a user log into the domain by using a simple script. If it's a workgroup, you will maybe use the same script but you have to place it in the startup folder.
Check http://www.dx21.com/SCRIPTING/RUNDLL32/ViewItem.ASP?OID=145&CMD=P%3DA page for how a script should look like.

If you are running in an Active Directory domain, you can use a logon script and Windwos Scripting Host (WSH) to automatically map printers. Check out the following details about how WSH works (remove any spaces):

E-mail me and I can send you a sample of what I use to automatically map printers for users in my environment.

Hope this helps.
