i ve found the solution to my problem using a soft named : con2prt .
This little program , part of the resource kit but that we can find on
the web , permits to connect a printer even when you don t have the
administator right on this printer .
i ve added a line like this in my logon script : con2prt /cd
\\printer_server\printer .

thanx everybody for their responses
