Specifies the Active Directory location where searches for printers begin.
This entry stores the setting of the Default Active Directory path when searching for printers Group Policy. Group Policy adds this entry to the registry when you enable the policy. If you disable the policy or set it to Not configured, Group Policy deletes the entry from the registry and all searches begin at the root of Active Directory.
To change the value of this entry, use Group Policy. This entry corresponds to the Default Active Directory path when searching for printers policy (User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Control Panel\Printers).
Note
This entry only provides a starting point for Active Directory searches for printers. It does not restrict user searches through the Active Directory.
