I can't rename network printer,
see <http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B281344>

Customizing PPDs to have one per printer works but it's a messy workaround if you have lots of printers, times lots of locations...

After palying with utility I managed to install network printer as local. It appears to work fine but I'm not sure if that's going to always work. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Alex
