Vista prompts for printer installation
This is frustrating. I have Vista Enterprise 32bit installed. When a domain user logs on, it prompts for driver installation because the login script does map to a bunch printers on the print server. The frustration part is that even after the driver installation part, every time a domain user logs in even the same person logs back into this PC, Vista still prompts a window for driver installation. The message box says the following:
To user the shared printer \\printServer\printerName, you need to install the printer driver on your computer. If you do not recognized or trust the name location of the printer, do not install the driver. Why is Vista kept popping this message box after all the printer drivers have been installed? |

Could you try installing the driver as admin instead of a user?

I did install the driver as administrator because it prompts me the administrator user and password. In addition to that, I even log in as the local admin and install the printer drivers that way too but Vista still prompts for driver installing. When I logged on as local admin or as domain user, in the Print Server Properties/Drivers tab, it does show all the correct drivers in there. But the pop up still occurring. It's frustrating.
