Re: Printing from Local and Network Logins

Look at kixstart for some scripting. We use this to mount our network =
folders.

I assign fixed IP addresses to the printers and then add them as a local
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.

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. =20
