    Users cannot install printers

    Discovered on Windows 7 and students (user) are logged in and they try to install a printer the "UAC" comes up looking for Admin credentials to install.

    We are using Active Directory with 2003 DC's and Print Servers. Everything works fine with Windows XP.

    If we "push" the printer via Group Policy it installs fine. If we add a Windows 2008 R2 Print Server adding 32 bit drivers the Windows 7 (32 bit) will install the printer for the user.

    I have looked in all the forums and cannot find the answer to this problem.

    HELP!

    This should help http://www.edugeek.net/forums/window...terupting.html

    You will need to change the group policy in question from a windows 7 computer with the remote admin tools installed to get the right setting but it will still work fine even with the 2003 server.
