Print Operators Group Doesn't Work on DC



I have a group of help desk people I'm trying to delegate permission to manage printers on the domain. Putting them in the built in "print operators" group seems to be the ticket for the "member" print server I have, but they keep getting access denied when they try to purge jobs of print servers that are also domain controllers.

If I go in and assign rights to to print operators on the individual printers, it works fine. Shouldn't print operators ALREADY have rights to manage printers on the domain? Isn't that the description for that group?

Confused.
