We have 50 workstations set up for certain jobs and the users roam as needed. Each workstation has two printers using different media. the printers are controlled by having two instances of Firefox with each having a user profile to use one printer or the other. In addition to printer settings we set a number of other profile settings such as silent printing etc.

Having a profile per user requires a great deal of setup work to allow different users to log in with authentication and to align the printers with the programs which will print to them.

A solution that would allow us to write a copy of a master profile to each new user via a program would be nearly perfect. Thank you,

I would use policy to write the preferences you need for specific printers. You can't easily share a profile.
