Best Practices for Deploying Printer Location with Active Directory
Microsoft® Windows® 2000 introduced a new feature that allows clients to find printers that have been published in the Microsoft Active Directory® service. Windows Server 2003® Active Directory services continues this location support for printers. To make it easy for your users to take advantage of this feature and locate printers based on their name, location, and other criteria, you must create a consistent location schema for your print organization. This white paper outlines some best practices for creating and maintaining a useful location schema for systems integrators, administrators and architects who are planning, deploying, or managing Windows print servers
