Is there a way to give Manage Printer permissions on aprintserverto

I want a domain user to log on with just Domain Userrightsonto
aprintserverbut give the user just enough permissions to Manage
Printers. I can easily just go into a printer on theprintserverand
add a user or group and give Manage Printerrights, but I have at least
200+ printers to manually do this on. Is there an easier way?

Thanks

Hiya,

I am having the same problem. I do not want to add the general support
staff to the Power Users group of the server just so they can manage
print queues but cannot find another way of achieving this. Were you
able to find a solution?

thanks

Axe
