Restricting limited user access to printer

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

Is there anyway that I can do this on my XP Home Edition With a HP PSC
2355p all in one. My son is the Limited User and he goes nuts with the
printer when I'm not there. I want to stop him being able to use the
printer.
Thank you

I thought of that but it would be a nusiance especially if you have left
the house and wonder did you hide the cable. Then again he may have a spare
cable hidden somewhere.
