no runas on Printers and Faxes

M

Mr Major Thorburn

We support users running locked down XP and use runas to
switch to the admin id when doing remote support
setups/changes.
We want to do the same for Printers and Faxes but are
unable to do so.
You cannot select runas from right mouse selection of
Printers and Faxes in the control panel.
If in a command prompt we use "runas /user:administrator
control" after the pw prompt we get nothing.
We have been looking for the cpl file but have failed.
The registry entry for the control panel NameSpace for
Printers refers to module %systemroot%\system32\main.cpl
but that is for the mouse not for printers.
Any ideas anyone?
Please help if you can.
Regards, Major.
thats my christian name ;-)
