Hi,
I have 2K3 standard server R2.
I find that my shared printers are automatically being connected to
the workstations. This happens even if the workstation is not joined
to the particular domain. I find multiple connections to the same
printer appear. One connection is through the server, another
connection (to the same printer) is from another workstation to the
server.
I do not have Windows Print Server installed. It doesn't seem to
matter if the "List in the directory" is enable or not.
I'm not trying to restrict printer access, but I don't want the
printer to be automatically connected.
How can I change this? Thanks!
Normally on computers joined to a domain this is automatically disabled.

On computers not joined to the domain you would have to disable it manually.
If for some reason the computers joined to the domain are auto finding the
printers you can use group policy to fix it.
