printer on the computer. You have to do that using an admin account on the
workstation. After that, any users on that machine can use that printer
(unless you set security otherwise). This distributes printing load away
from a central server, so the computer doesn't need to be logged into the
domain to print to it. We're actually in temporary quarters this summer
during a renovation at our school. I plugged in two of these networked
printers and was able to print to them from our workstations with local
logins. You can contact me off-line if you want step-by-step instructions
for doing this in XP.

Logging in:
Have you looked into "mandatory profiles?" I am assuming you would have
some sort of network connection.
Printing:
Direct IP address. Instead of going through the server, you can connect the
computer directly to the printer.

Subject: Local and Network Logins
Until this year, I had set up grade-level student accounts in my Active
Directory that students used to login, access files, and print. Next year
there is a bunch of reconstruction going on, so I am switching to local
accounts. (Each computer is shared by two classrooms, so I will have
Fourth_Woods and Fourth_Lechner as an example, both local accounts.)
I am going to create online space to store and access files (a combination
of Nings, Google Docs, and Live@Edu).
Question, how do I set up the network printers so local accounts can print
to them? I added the printers using the grade level account. (For example,
on the fourth grade machine logged in locally, I used the fourth_woods AD
login to add the printers I needed.) However, if you try to print, they get
the error because they are not on the domain.
Thanks,
