Re: GPO

Hi Antonio,

Welcome to the public newsgroup. Mark thanks a lot for updates.

Before we go any further, could you tell us these two issue are related or
two separated issue.

Generally speaking, the group policy needs to be updates if you want the
policy become effective immediately. As mark explained, you can gpupdate on
the command line to refresh the group policy to see if the issue is
resolved.

For the printer issue:

By default, only administrator can add the local printers on the client. It
is for security reason, if you want to the some special normal user can add
the local printer, you need delegate the local admin right to the user. You
can logon on the client with local administrator and add the domain user to
the local administrator group. Then you can add the local printer to the
client computer with that user.

I hope this information helps. If you have any questions or concerns,
please do not hesitate to let me know. I am standing by to help you. Thank
you for your time and cooperation.

Best regards,

Charles Yang (MSFT)
