How do I add the Printers Settings applet to the Start Menu?

A. Create a New folder under the start menu you wish to have it on (administrator, All users or your specific profile), for example 'c:\winnt\Profiles\savillj\Start Menu' Name the New folder:

Printers.\{2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D\}

Complete with the period, brackets and dashes. Once entered it will automatically be renamed to 'Printers' and unlike the Settings Printers it will be cascading meaning all printers will be shown as sub-objects.
