Printer scripting

We are tring to script a printer for all our users. We just installed a doc managment suite that can use a printer to scan docs to the users in box. The server that the doc management and printer is on is a Red Hat Server. Our users are on WXP Pro SP2. The printer is mapped by user name and uses the Apple Laser Writer 16/600 PS print driver.

Is there a way to script it so that the printer and the correct driver gets installed? Here is what we have so far.

Code:
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /ga /c\\%computername% /n\\10.5.1.5\%username% /ia /f "%windir%\inf\ntprint.inf" /m "Apple LaserWriter 16/600 PS"


TIA

Code:
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /ga /c\\%computername% /n\\10.5.1.5\%username% /ia /f "%windir%\inf\ntprint.inf" /m "Apple LaserWriter 16/600 PS"

What are you scripting with? You've got a command line. Is that for a batch script? I would recommend doing this with WMI. If you need your script to accomplish other tasks as well, then implement WMI in a WSH script.
