Our notebook users are on Windows XP SP2. Their user IDs are not local
admin nor power users. When logging in remotely, this is defined by cache
credentials.

How can we allow them to install their own home local printers (USB,
parallel, or IP-based) or cameras as local devices?

We tried putting the user on Local Security Settings->User Rights
Assignments->Load and unload device drivers. This didn't make a difference.
Is there some other function or setting we're not seeing?

Thanks!

Windows will just install any drivers that are properly signed.
Same for standard driver types included in Windows
( mice, keybords, USB flash and so on ).
No action is needed on your side.
If the drivers are not signed, or the vendor uses not recommended methods to
install their drivers and other software, this won't work for standard users.
