I solved it by creating a new printer in my printers GPP, setting it to delete, then checking the 'remove all shared printers' box. Note that this has to be first (ie order = 1) in the gpp printer list. I had the same problem with regards to printers not being removed.

The problem is that none of the other printers are being removed. Every time a user logs on to another computer where a printer preference is applied, they get the new printer and it remains as part of their roaming domain profile. I am using loop back processing so I can assign printers based on computer OU. I am using item-level targeting, to a computer OU so I can define a printer (or two) that users will get when they log on. I thought that using the common option "remove this item when it is no longer applied" would remove the printers that do not apply but this is not happening. Anyone have this experiece and what did you do to fix it. In my case prefernces are applying the correct printers and assigning the correct default printer.
