Hello everyone
I have two printers installed (one is straight forward IP and the other is an NDPS printer) It seem like windows allways want to set the IP printer as default printer for all users, how can I make it set the NDPS printer as default ?
 
C:\>rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /?

this will give you all the switches you need to install network printers and set default printers without user intervention
 
MilesW,
NDPS printer.

It is a "bug", that the Novell TID fixes.
 
No problem, I thought at first to do as you recommended, but the lack of "stickiness" in the settings is what is I think key.

I have no idea if the TID above from Novell resolved the issue.

I solved it by having a zfd policy set the ndps printer as default, but thanks anyway guys.
