Printer not available for all users
I'm setting up a new computer, for a new staff member. I log on with my
account, install all the programs.

I then install two printers, they're on a print server. It works, I can
print.

Problem: When I have the user log on with his account, no printers are
available. That user can not see any printers. I can then re-install the
printers, from their account, and it works, but when another user logs in at
that computer, I have to re-install the printer again.

Question: How can I install a printer, so that it is available to all users?
(and future users)

Thank you,
Bill
