printers is part of the "control" applet

hi,
thanks for the response. the control printers from the command prompt worked. where did u get this info. i went thru the xp resource kit but i dont remember seeing anything.
where would be a good place to learn these extra tips? i am mainly interested in knowing how to launch common configuration windows from std user account either thru "runas>cmd prompt>config window cmd" or any other means in both a workgroup and domain environment
thanks in advance
