Hi Allan

You suggestion was not successful however it did prompt me to try $share.printername which looks like it might do the trick. I'll be able to try this out tomorrow. This leads me to another question.

What are the merits of using a
$Service = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" + $remotepc + "\root\cimv2")
approach rather than
$computer = getobject("WinNT://"+$computer+",Computer")

And sorry for forgetting to properly format my posted code

Cheers

Mark
