For some reason, power users cannot install printer software and drivers. I checked the group policies for installing printer device drivers and they are correct. Power users have the right to install printers The laptop finds the printer and tries to install the software/drivers. Then a screen comes back stating, Access denied. Any reason why this would be happening?

There is a policy for installing printer drivers and another policy under user rights for the ability to load and unload drivers. Make sure this is allowed for power users also.

I have that policy disabled, so that power users will be able to install printer drivers.

Thanks.
