Hi,

I have a small 2000 domain use AD, one 2000 client
have a printer connected and share the printer on AD,
the client use the new printer now and share it, when
other 2000 client add the network printer can find the
old shared printer.

How can I remove the old printer from AD?

Thanks Advance

If you enable "Users, Groups, and Computers as containers" in View menu in
AD Users And computers, and then click on the computer where the old printer
was located you will see a printer object associated with the computer
object. There you can delete it.
