I have Printer Services running on a Windows Server 2019. I created a new Group Policy to deploy the printers to specific computers in our domain.

If I log on to one of those computers (Windows 10 Pro) as an admin, the printer show up fine.

If I log in as a standard users the printers do not show.

Any suggestions?

    HI OgeidiusW,

    0.What's the model of your issue printer？

    1."I created a new Group Policy to deploy the printers to specific computers in our domain"
    There are 4 group policies, Which printer policy did you set?
    If you are using user policy to deploy specified printer to target computer, could you please check if the same issue happen when you use computer policy to deploy printer.

    Computer policy
    computer Configuration\Policies\windows settings\deployed printers​
    computer Configuration\preferences\control pannel settings\printers​

    User policy
    user Configuration\Policies\windows settings\deployed printers​
    user Configuration\preferences\control pannel settings\printers

    2.There is a good printer server and printer deploy video for your reference.

    Did you configure printer policy and printer server like that?
