KB ID 0000835

Solution

How to Display Printers in Active Directory

1. Your first challenge is actually seeing the printers, Windows Key+R > dsa.msc {Enter}.

2. Active Directory Users and Computers will open > View > Select ‘Users, Contacts, Groups and Computers as containers’.

Note: Above I’ve got Advanced Features enabled, that’s not a requirement in this case.
