Creating TCP/IP printer at login?
Due to the odd setup we have here, on some PCs the default printer is on a TCP/IP port on the local printer. Is it possible to have the port and printer added and set to default printer via a login script?
I currently have a WSH script that adds a normal shared printer based on the computer name apart from this one room. EDIT: Found an example of creating a printer via LPT1 Code:
'VBScript Example
Set WshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
WshNetwork.AddPrinterConnection "LPT1", "\\printserver\printer", _
True, "jbloggs", "password"
Now I need to know how to add the port Last edited by Acid Reign : December 8th, 2003 at 06:11 AM.
