Restricting printer browse lists

[Guest]

I am managing a multi customer domain for outsourced network management so
have multiple servers with printers for diferent customers. Due to how the
printer browse lists work all customers can see all servers printers whether
they are theirs or another clients. Obviously I have restricted permissions
so they can only print to their own, but is there a way I can allow clients
to only see their own print servers printers, or even set them to default to
their local print server when they add a printer?

I'm not sure, but if they can see shared printers, they can also probably
see a lot of other stuff, too. If the networks are supposed to be separate,
perhaps you ought to look into segregating them with routers or VLANs.

The networks are separated by routers so that one client cannot connect to a
print server on another clients network, but as the clients are in separate
OU's within a single domain they can see the other print servers on the
network browse list when adding a printer.
This isn't so much a security issue as one client cannot print to another
clients print server as routing rules don't allow the TCP/IP connectivity.
The issue is more a nicety that I would prefer they didn't see other print
servers on the list even though they can't print to them anyway.
