A few times I have noticed that when I update a printer driver on our print server (Windows 2008 R2), users will get prompted to install the printer driver FOR OTHER PRINTERS that the driver has not changed. Is this expected, or is there a group policy that should be set so the print driver just updates without prompting them? I recall there was a GPO you could set to allow non-admin accounts to install the printer driver, is it something along those lines?
For example, we had a new Ricoh copier installed, and users in another part of the building who don't use the new copier were getting prompted to install a new driver. Both copiers were Ricoh, but different models. Are the drivers too closely related, or is it possible if it's a universal driver it will cause these issues?
