you should be using active directory for this so you define the printer once (at a centralised printer server) and allow/deny access based on group permissions etc...
ADS lets you define all your access/restrictions during logon rather than relying on users to run a batch file or requiring a local tech todo it...
if you're reticent to use an enterprice server (and i would be)... have a look at LDAP servers runing on unix servers providing the authentication and 'directory' information like location of network printers - then using cheapo linux boxes to privide print queues/servers using CUPS and/or Samba.
