without any configuration on every computer/user profile.
I want to do it centraly in some way
How?

Hi,

you can do it with start up script. The script would look something like
this:

*****
Set WshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
WshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection \\Primus\HP4500
WshNetwork.SetDefaultPrinter "\\Primus\HP4500
*****

Replace \\Primus\ with the name of your printer server
Replace HP4500 with name of your printer (share)
If you don't want to have this printer as default printer skip the last
line...
