I'm stumped on an issue regaurding a printer right now.

I have a user that logs into domain X and our print server is on domain Y. The user cannont print to a certain printer on domain Y w/o a username and password of a user on domain Y (normal) yet there is another printer on domain Y that he can print to no problem. Apparently it was setup so that he could do so yet I see no differences off the security tab in both standard and advanced settings. So, why can the user print to one printer on domain Y and not another while logged into domain X.

I have no access to permissions on domain X but full control of the entire Y Domain.

My thoughts are
1. Users computer cached the authentication of that printer
2. Domain X has some trust to specificly that printer.. not sure if this can be done.

If the authentication is cached to his computer how do I make it happen for this other printer.
