  Installing Print Drivers Remotely
Well, someone else seemed to appreciate this tip a lot, and I don't know where else it may be posted online (I'm sure quit a few places), but basically, if you want to install a print driver on someone's computer for them, and don't wish to interrupt them, you can do so through a script or through Windows Explorer.

  1. Goto Start --> Run
  2. Type "\\[computername]"
  3. Open Printers and Faxes (should now be at Printers and Faxes on )
  4. Right-click in an open area and choose Server Properties
  5. In the new window, choose the Drivers tab and click the Add button
Hopefully this helps you streamline your IT operations throughout the day :-) Perhaps I'll post a how-to on scripting this operation later on.
