I am having trouble with deploying printers with GPP. I have 40 Printers that need to be deployed to different users. Only certain users need certain printers.
I've got a GPO setup with user printer preferences and a list of 5 printers for testing. Each of those printers I have targeted to security groups for each printer. My test users are added to the various security groups.
If I set the Security filter of the policy to "Authenticated Users" then ALL (not just test users) get the printers deployed to them. If I leave the security filter blank, NO users get the printers.
I was under the impression, since I targeted each printer to a specific Security group, only users in that group will get that printer.
Thanks for any help you can give,
Travis

For an easy way to manage those deployment I would use 1 GPO/GPP per printer, with one security group for each GPO.
I do this in all the shop I manage as when a user X call to get added a printer Y, you just have to add him to the security group and voila, it's done.
