[Casper] Non Admin Adding Printer

[Alan Benedict]

It doesn't allow users to add printers from System Preferences, it
will let them add one by selecting add printer from the printer drop
down menu when they are trying to print.  I personally could not get
that managed pref to work.  I ended up creating a policy that executed
the command  dscl . -append /Groups/_lpadmin GroupMembership $3
That will add the user to the lpadmin group and all of my problems
were solved.  If anyone can figure out how to get the managed pref to
work, I would love to hear how.
