Snow Leopard: Allowing standard users to add printers

In Snow Leopard standard users are not allowed to modify the print queues.  Apple has a work-around in this KB article:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3511

Run this command:

dseditgroup -o edit -n /Local/Default -u admin -p -a student -t user lpadmin

Where "admin" is the short name for the local admin account and "student" is the name of the user
