    Our school has two main types of users: Faculty and Students. We want Students to be able to print to one list of printers and Faculty to print to a different list. In Workgroup Manager I have specified the lists and when a user logs in they can see that list and print with no issues. The problem is that after they log out of a public computer, their list is not cleared away. So if a Faculty user logs in after a Student user (or vice-versa), they can now see both lists of printers combined. Is there something I am missing to make this work?

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi there,

    had the same/similar problem over here: mcx-printers were not refreshed but merged/added after logout/login.

    As a workaround we made a logout-script that deletes all MCX-printers. When the users logs back in the next day, he/she receives a fresh list of MCX-printers.

    Best Regards,

    Henk
