Restricting Printer in User Profile

I have an HP DeskJet 952C via a USB port on Windows XP Pro. I have two users set up o this home PC. I'm the big, bad administrator who does all and rules with a heavy hand.
My 13 year old daughter is a Limited User. Bless her heart, but if I let her she'll print out twenty color photos of Britney Spears before breakfast. Call me old fashioned, but I don't think that's such a good idea.
In W2K Pro I seem to remember it was very easy to configure her profile so she couldn't access the printer under her profile. I can't seem to find that option for printer use in XP. Am I missing something?
 
Is it not on the properties sheet to the printer? There is a tab called permissions. If you take her off the list, she wont be able to print.
