Hi,
I have yet to see how you can have a domain user who is a
member of the local users group be given explicit rights to install
print
drivers. Do you have a way to allow this and still keep the domain
user a
member of the local users group on the system?
It depends on whether you are talking network printers or physical
local printers.
I run network printers and I put a startup script to add the printers
to the computer (which installs the files and printer). Once the
printer is set in the startup script a user can add it as many times
as they want as the files are already on the computer. However, I
haven’t played with the "allow add devices". Also, the printer files
are stored in the C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86
directory so you could try giving write access to that.
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /in /q /n "\\server\printer"
