To add printers per user during the logon you need to add logon scripts to the computer. You can deploy scripts through the Active Directory policies or by creating a local policy per computer. To create a manageable environment it is the best to attach the script to a policy. By applying the policy to a Organisational Unit you can roll-out the script on the objects in the Organisational Unit. Logon- and Logoffscripts can be applied to Users and Startup- and Shutdownscripts can be applied to Computers.
For adding logon scripts to a policy in Active Directory:
By opening the Group Policy Object Editor and expanding Windows Settings under User Configuration. Select Scripts and you will see this screen:
Dubbelclick on Logon and click the Show Files (1) button in the next screen. You can easily copy and paste your script into this folder. The location where the logon script will be stored is %SystemRoot%\SYSVOL\sysvol\<DOMAIN>\Policies\<GUID>\USER\Scripts\Logon. Now click on Add (2) and the next screen will appear.
By clicking on the Browse button you can select the script you just pasted in the scripts folder.
