#168309 - 2006-09-22 04:32 PM Determine if network printer is installed on the workstation.
Daniel_007 Daniel_007 Fresh Scripter Registered: 2004-07-13 Posts: 6	Is there a way to determine if a network printer is installed on the workstation? I am making a script that will setup a profile for users when they log on to the workstation for the first time. I have about 10+ printers I need to setup for the users, however I do not want to install / change printers for people that already have them setup. ie, If the printer is already installed I don't want to reinstall it (will take time and mess up the default printers). is this possible? I've been searching but cannot find it in the documentation, I will take a look in the UDF's
