Hey. i have a problem. i want to automatically add 2 printers to my vista client. it works fine on my XP clients/users. but not vista. '

i want to do this coz when a user loggs on, i don't want them to have the option to not accept the new prionter. (you can't trust users)

i want the drivers to the printer to be installed whitout a question. i have tried to read my way to an answer, buit nothing works. any ideas?
