Allow non admin to install unsigned printer driver

Hi we have some Windows Vista in our environement and we have a lot of
driver that are not digitaly signed. So when non admin users try to install
theat network driver, they just can't GRRRRR!

Is there a way to allow non admin user to install non signed printer driver
?

Thanks for your help !

Local printer or is this a printer shared from another machine?
