I'm installing a new print server on server 2008 R2.

I have Group Policy pushing the printer to my Win7 Users.

When I set the default settings for the printer on the server, and then log on to the client, The default settings are not applied for the user.

Any ideas or links to information on how to set printer defaults for client PCs would be appreciated.

Thanks

Grant

Fixed, under the advanced tab I found "Printing Defaults" which carries over to the client PC.

I read in the following post you could not do this:

Thanks.

The link refers to Server 2003, you are using Server 2008 R2 ... a few improvements since :-)
