Yes, I thought as much, but the problem seems that they can't change
them on a per-job basis either. 

Even if the XP users have the permission to "Manage Documents", they
can't change the printer properties for a particular job.

This wouldn't be a problem except that lots of people want to print the
first page on headed paper and subsequent pages on unheaded paper.
Perhaps I could make a filter to do this.

Thanks again,
Tom
