I need help in assigning a specific printer to a certain security group

I've done all that is asked here, but still, the printer shows up for ALL users in the domain.

I've created the GPO, and implemented item-level targeting, but no luck so far :(

If I select a specific security group in Scope, the printer doesn't show up at all.

Hi,

When you add the group into the scope on the GPO, did you give them the read and apply group policy permission under the delegation?
At the same time users in the group are also in the USERS OU, right?

Also, computers which the user account logon should be also added and have the read permission.

We should also confirm if there are any other GPOs which deployed the same setting.
You can run command: gpresult /h userreport.html to check all the settings for the users.

    NO LUCK

    I have Item targeting for SecGroup1, for the specific printer in the GPO.
    If I put Authenticated Users and SecGroup1 in Scope, I get the printer for all authenticated users, regardless.
    If I delete Authenticated users and leave just SecGroup1 - i get nothing - no printer for the SecGroup1

    Any other suggestions?!?
