But these are network printers that we're connecting to, and connected
network printers are on a per-user basis rather than a per-machine
basis. So if the Media Specialist connects to the shared printer under
her account, that printer won't be there when the student logs in,
right?

I can't answer your specific questions, but some things to think about
related to this.


GPO to only allow your meida specialists and IT staff install printers.
So room 222 gets the printer near it and no others. That narrows down
the attack footprint so to speak.

Get away from the generic accounts as much as possible.  7 thru 12 here
have to use their own account. There is a generic account for
emergencies, only the media specialist have that password and we change
it very often.

1-6 each building has a generic account that is changed each year.
Otherwise the 6th graders use the account in the jr highs......
