Hello everyone,

Trying to give staff who are not local admins rights to add and remove printers. I am getting an error when this runs - any ideas or info would be appreciated.

Command:
sudo dseditgroup -o edit -t group -a "ISDXXXDistrictSecurity GroupsAll Staff" _lpadmin

Output of command:
Executing Offline Policy Printer Admin Access...
Running command sudo dseditgroup -o edit -t group -a "ISDXXXAll Staff" _lpadmin...
Result of command:
Group not found.

@bwiessne Try that same command without the underscore:

dseditgroup -o edit -t group -a "ISDXXXDistrictSecurity GroupsAll Staff" lpadmin

Also, remember, policies run as root, so no need to sudo if you're using Casper tools.
