Adding printers automatically 1

[tomcsanadi]

What is the best way to automatically add printers to workstations in a domain enviroment. I have played with the rundll32 printui.dll and it is very difficult to use, then I ran across "start \\print_server\print_name" it works great but if I put it in a logon script it always pops up the printer window, What if I want to delete the current printer everyone is using and change it to a new printer. Any Ideas?

Options:

Put them in Group policy OU
Put them in locations that match user groups
Create a standard profile that includes printer shares
Install printer on server with drivers for all desktop OS's and have users point to server, right click printer and select install.

The choice is yours!
