VS 2008 Small App To List And Add Printers?

Oct 9, 2009

Am looking at making a small application that will list printers on two file servers at two separate sites, from this app they can add the printer/s to there local computer.

I have found a small application on the web but there are a few improvements it could do with.

They are; Show all local printers without having to click on a check box. Show sites printers without having to click on a check box. Show comments about the printer�s location other then just the site.

If it is possible I would like to update this one, but if there are any other examples where I could download something similar, or even some help with how to begin to create a new application.

Here are some screen shots, of the application form and the xml which holds the folder structure for the sites.

Vbscript - Remove Old Printers - Add New Printers

Sep 23, 2009

Trying to write a Vbscript. Actually, I'm trying to modify an existing script that I found on the internet. I basically need the script to run on workstations, delete printers from our old print server (master), and install the corresponding printer from our new print server (dc01). I should also mention that the printer names have changes slightly. So far, the script does a great job of deleting printers from Master, but none of the corresponding dc01 printers are installed.

Here's the code:

Creating Application With Multiple Printers?

Aug 15, 2011

I have multiple forms and reports with different print area. Some are designed to print to a thermal label printer and others to department shared printers. Currently the user is able to change the printer in print dialog box and print to differernt printers. I want to be able to create a form where the user can assign different printers for different jobs and not have to worry about it.

The problem is, i have never worked with printing function and my collegues arent too smart so I was wondering if someone can throw me ideas on where to start so i can start googling for it.
