I have my users loggin in with Active Directory accounts. I set up a couple printers while logged in as a local admin, when the network users logs in to the computer you can see the printers if you click on the printer setup utility, but they are not available in the print menu when trying to print a document. Doesn't make sense to me, any ideas on a fix?
 
good response, you mean you actually have to click the "add" button. Of course I set them up, they are listed as installed, but don't show in the print menu. I found the answer to my problem anyway, related to printing prefs in open directory.
 
Most OS X written printer drivers are written for USB only. You have to see if the manufacture has a network driver or that a GIMP printer driver could work (click on 'more printers' in Printer Setup Utility) and try finding if a driver is there.
