Printer deployment 'per-computer' question

Since we’re moving all network printers to a new server, we decided to use a
new feature in Win2003 R2 to deploy printers via GPO (per-computer basis).



I have created some OUs, like

- OU_Marketing

- OU_Sales

- OU_Finance and put proper computers in it.



Then I have created GPOs, assign them proper printers (per-computer), and
put pussprinterconnections in startup-script.

All is working; users get printers installed on their computers.

But if I move a computer from OU_Marketing into OU_Sales, after restart user
gets both printers OU_Marketing and OU_Sales, but he has been moved from
OU_Marketing and put into OU_Sales unit????

I deleted printer on client computer, I also use rundll32 printui.dll
PrintUIEntry /gd /n\\machine\printer to delete printer per-computer, but
after restart user gets both printer back.

I run gpresult command and only OU_Sales GPO has been applied, but strange
after looking ppcMachine.log in users %windir%\temp folder I see:



.... Found and applied this GPO: Printer deploy HP-OU_Marketing

.... Found and applied this GPO: Printer deploy HP-OU_Sales

.... Deploying per machine connection \\server\hp-marketing

.... Deploying per machine connection \\server\hp-sales



I can’t figure it out, why both polices are applied, since the computer has
been moved from OU_Marketing and put into OU_Sales???

How can I delete a printer that has been applied from first GPO? If I delete
printer on OU_Sales GPO, all printers on client computers in OU_Sales unit
will be deleted. But I only want to delete it on a specific computer? Am I
doing something wrong?



Any help will be appreciated.

Kind regards,

Miha
