Change default printer windows 8 keygen#

Printers deployedВ under the user configuration will allow easier management. There is one downside to computer side printers you canвЂ™t set one as the default without some trickery. If you auto wake-up your computers before the work day begins, your users never even see the printer install. Will you deploy printers from theВ Computer Configuration or User Configuration node?Дeploying printers from the computer configuration node is quite a bit faster than the user node. Printers are named like this: SITEPREFIX_LOCATION_MODEL.В The printer name in the preference will always match the printer name on the print server. Every site has a site prefix.В Each site has a dedicated printer policy named Printers: SITE PREFIX. To give you an example, my environment has 20+ sites. You should have standard names for your printer GPOs and the individual preference items. Just like any new addition to Group Policy, you will alsoВ want to decided on a naming convention before setting up your first printer preference. That recommendation comes from my personal experience with printer management. If you have many sitesВ or a sites with many printers, youвЂ™ll likely prefer several printer GPOs (one per site). If you have less than 50 printers, you can create a single dedicated Printer GPO.

What to do Before Deploying Your First Printer Before you deploy your first printer, you need to answer two questions first: Here is the great thing about deploying printers this way: you donвЂ™t need anything special andВ it can deploy IP, local, or shared printers!ДЄs long as your clients support Group Policy Preferences (which runs on XP SP3 +) and you have a print server, you can deploy printers with Group Policy Preferences. Deploying printers with Group Policy Preferences is the superior way to deploy your printers.
