Hi, 1. Since you are working in a network environment, you can look into active directory. 2. Since you are working with .NET, you can look at ADSI. 3. You can look at this documentation (no codes) on how to assign printer permission - http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/WindowsServ/2003/standard/proddocs/en-us/Default.asp?url=/resources/documentation/WindowsServ/2003/standard/proddocs/en-us/sag_printconcepts_12.asp Hope to get you started! Cheers.
