Allowing Non-Admin users to add printers OS X clients

Problem: I need to allow non-administrator users add printers to Mac OS X.

Solution:

Add the GeneratedUID from the everyone group (ABCDEFAB-CDEF-ABCD-EFAB-CDEF0000000C) to the NestedGroups attribute of the _lpadmin group.

dscl . -append /Groups/_lpadmin NestedGroups ABCDEFAB-CDEF-ABCD-EFAB-CDEF0000000C
