Re: Printing with GPO
Are you sure the script did not run, or ran but didn't do what you want?
Try adding an "eventcreate" command to your script - this will add an entry
into either the Application or System event logs so you can verify if the
script actually runs or not.
By default, printer connections are user specific, so when you run it as a
"Startup" script, no user is logged on and thus no printer is added.
However, you can add a printer "globally" - for all users - see

It is perfectly useless to know the right answer to the wrong question.
