force printer acces thru AD

[Pierre Bru]

hi,

is it possible to force user in the "add printer wizard" to choose the
printer via AD (search AD for the printer), preventing them to add the
printer browsing the domain/servers ?

is it possible to have the printers available in the AD choise an not
visible while browsing ?

Pierre.

This policy setting controls whether or not clients can browse the network
for printers when using the "Add printer" wizard:
User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Control Panel >
Printers > "browse the network to find printers"
