Is it possible, (and if so, how) to assign a printer to a
group or OU with AD in Win2k3? So that those users will
always have that printer. I'd like to do this to a group
all at once instead of instructing every user how to add
the printer, or adding it for them myself.

I'd also like to force a printer to a computer, so that no
matter who logs into that machine, it will automatically
have a specific printer I've assigned. Can this be done
in AD? Can this be done with local policies?

Thanks for any help.

You create GPO for that OU, that has logon script set. In logon script use
something like this

Set WshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
WshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\server\printer"
WshNetwork.SetDefaultPrinter "\\server\printer"
