In my ccase, when the user plug the printer, he has a msgbox asking
for admin credentials even if he is local poweruser.

I try via those GPOs but nothing works :

load and unload device drivers in computer config/windows
settings/security settings/local policies/user rights assignment)
computer config :
I select disabled on computer config/windows settings/security
settings/local policies/security option/ devices:prevent/users from
installing printer drivers
I select silently succeeded a la gpo suivante computer
config/windows
settings/security settings/local policies/security option/devices:
unsigned
driver installation behavior
user config :
I select disabled on prevent addition of printers on config/admin
templates/control panel/printers/policy
idem for prevent deletion of printers
so ???

Hello luc,

Normally they can by default. So what error did you get when trying
