attach printers and make it default



Hi,

Can anyone help me how to do?

we are running Windows 2003 AD with 80 workstations.

A new network printer is added and shared in a print server. It's already
published in the AD.

If i want this new printer attached automatically in all workstation as
default printer, how to make it easier? Otherwise, i will need to do it in
every users workstation in maunally.

I may send a link to the users and let them do it themselves. but, some of
them are not smart enough.

I want this printer will be the new default after they logged off and logged
on again.

I know logon script "net use" can mapped it as lpt but i don't want to do
like that.

I tried the following by Microssoft as well but it's to add the local
printer manually.

Many thanks
