I have multiple users per pc. I'm fairly new to setting up Windows 2000. I need to be able to add a printer once that will be available to anyone who logs on. Is there a way to do this?

The best way to do this is to logon to the local machine as administrator. Just goto Printers in the Control Panel. Set up the printer using the wizard and then it will show for all users. If you are part of a network for this to work the best make sure you logon locally. Any problems please contact me via email.

Right click the printer and go to the security tab. Make sure that the Everyone group has the "print" permission.
