Installing Network Printer Weirdness

[Guest]

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

Hello All

When installing a network printer on a users pc the printer will appear to
install ok but will not print.
On deleting the printer and repeating the process it installs and prints
fine.

This *is* a permissions issue as installing as a domain admin works fine
first time but it is frustrating for end users.

Any ideas on how to set it up so that domain users can install a network
printer from the server with success first time?

Clients: Windows XP Pro SP2
Servers: Windows 2003 SP1 AD

TIA

Matt
