Robert - I fiddled around further; right clicking on the Print command in the
Print pull down list brings the Printer list up. So that problem is solved; I
can teach everyone in the office this trick.

Still wondering what GPO means. I am still flummoxed as to how the menu bar
just "took off" on all 13 PCs. I sure as heck do not recall doing anything
that causes the menu bar to remain "ticked", and "untickable".
