How do I assign a network printer to an OU

How do I assign a network printer to an OU. I have
installed new Windows XP PC's on my Domain and everytime
a different user logs on I have to install the printer on
the PC all over again.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Tom

Tom,

What I do, is configure a logon script through group policy to run a batch
file. Mine installs two printers: a Minolta Copier and a SharedFax printer,
both installed on my HI-SERVER and sets the Minolta as the default. I have
included the text of my batch file.

CopierConnection.bat
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /ga /in /n"\\HI-SERVER\SharedFax"
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /ga /in /n"\\HI-SERVER\Minolta Copier" /b
"Minolta Copier"
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /y /n"\\HI-SERVER\Minolta Copier"

Also, there is a document that shows all of the printer commands where I got
all of these from. Sorry, but I cant place my hands on it right now. Good
luck.

Chris
