Re: Printing problem

Using a logon script is certainly one solution, but an alternative is to put
the command I suggested into the Startup folder of the user that needs to
connect to the printer. We use this technique for consultants that bring
their own computer and need to print on network printers.

This avoids the need to create a user account on the computer (that wants to
use the network printer) that is known on the computer that has the printer.

The command will establish an authenticated connection to the computer with
the printer using the user account included in the command instead of using
the credentials of the currently logged on user.

It's perfectly useless to know the right answer to the wrong question.
