Help/Explain Text :
Determines
whether printers using kernel-mode drivers may be installed on the local
computer. Kernel-mode drivers have access to system-wide memory, and therefore
poorly-written kernel-mode drivers can cause stop errors. If you disable this
setting, or do not configure it, then printers using a kernel-mode drivers may
be installed on the local computer running Windows XP Home Edition and Windows
XP Professional. If you do not configure this setting on Windows Server 2003
family products, the installation of kernel-mode printer drivers will be
blocked. If you enable this setting, installation of a printer using a
kernel-mode driver will not be allowed. Note: By applying this policy, existing
kernel-mode drivers will be disabled upon installation of service packs or
reinstallation of the Windows XP operating system. This policy does not affect
64-bit Itanium computers, because kernel-mode drivers cannot be installed on
Intel 64-bit Itanium computers.
