How can I configure Vista Business so that by default the Everyone security principle or theUsers group automatically gets permissions to manage printers and documents for all new printers added to the system? After a printer is installed, an administrator can change the permissions for the printer to allow this, but I'm looking for a way for this to happen automatically. I've looked through the local security policies and group policies and can't find anything that will do this, but I could be overlooking something. The primary need for this is so that as printers get replaced in the field, it doesn't take an administrative user account to delete them (or take an administrative user's intervention after each new printer is installed to set the permissions). Any ideas?

Time to you to read this: http://technet2.microsoft.com/WindowsVista/en/library/ab8d75f8-9b35-4e3e-a344-90d7799927231033.mspx?mfr=true Please note that it works for users in Win2k; both users and computers in WinXP or above.

Thanks, but that doesn't seem to apply to what I'm trying to do (unless I'm misunderstanding). At a minimum I need to be able to, in a non-Active Directory setting, configure Windows Vista so that any printer that is installed can be deleted by any user. I would prefer to be able to give full printer and document management permissions to all users by default, but I could get by if Vista could be configured to at least give delete permissions by default.
