Hiding inaccessable printers

How would I hide inaccessable printers from users who should not be seeing
them? Explanation; we are hosting a few companies on one of our servers. When
I log in to our server remotely from home, I can see all of the printers. Now
the companies we host can only see their own printers, but I do not want our
own people to be able to accidently print a document to a clients desk from a
remote login. So how can I hide the other companies printers from our
employees from seeing them when they remote into our server?

Thanks for any help,

Hank Lambert

Are you using Citrix in this solution?

No, we are not.

Setup security groups for each company and add the company's users into it
.... then allow each group to print to the relevant printers and remove the
'Everyone' group (on the security tab of the printer). Would this do it ?
