Godex printer installation via GPO. Requesting credentials.

Question

Hello.

I have a Godex printer added to the prints server.

I'd like it to automatically install via GPO.

But a plate of credentials about the need for elevation of privilege appears (possibly while installing drivers).

Drivers are added in GPO as trusted.

What should I do to prevent the credentials from appearing?

I know that after some update, Windows blocks untrusted drivers.

Greetings.

Computer Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates >Control Panel/Printers > Point and Print Restrictions
computer config / policies / admin templates / system / driver installation / policy enable the allow non-admins to install drivers
Please refer to the information below: Hope they could be helpful.

We have three AD containers:
-users

• desktop computers
• laptops
  There is a policy in each container:
• computer configuration
• user configuration
  Which policy is the most important / overarching?
  Which one should I modify?
