Multiple XP users to use same printer

Clarifications

a local printer or network printer?

for a "difficult" workstation that kept changing the default printer for some reason I could never track down.

It's called Default Printer....a little clumsy but it worked well.

If you have already installed the printer under Administrator profile, log off the machine and copy profile to deafault users under a different login. This method copies all the setting (including printers) to all users and does not gives them admin rights either. Or you could delete all printers under printer setting and install the printer in admin profile as default that you want users to connect to. Each user who logs in will have the printer.

If networked the printer should have a static IP address. You can then Use the Add Printer Wizard.
Uncheck the automatically detect attached printer and then add a local printer.
Create a new port of the type - Standard TCP/IP.
At the next screen type the IP address, Next and continue to the end of the wizard.

Any user that logs on will have access to the printer, they will need to set it as default.

Or add this script to the all users startup.
Be sure to add the print queue path in both spots.

Set WshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
PrinterPath = "\\ServerName\queuename"
WshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection PrinterPath
WshNetwork.SetDefaultPrinter "\\ServerName\queuename"
