Okay, using this code, I am able to get the printer names from the Printers OU and trim off the CN=. I just need to now create the variables for the new groups I want to create using CreateADGroup.udf

code:
;********** Beginning of group creation *********
$logfile=c:\printers.xls
$printers = GetObject("LDAP://OU=Printers,DC=madonna,DC=local")

if @error
   ? @serror
else

$rc=redirectoutput($logfile,1)

      for each $printer in $printers
         $printername = $printer.name
         $printername = substr($printername,4)

            if left($printername,7) = "MRH-01-"
               $printgroup = substr($printername,8)
               ? $printgroup ; write output to file for now
            endif

      next

$rc=redirectoutput('')

endif
