Adding printers with VBScript
Pretty easy stuff… if you should ever need to add a login script to map a printer, or batch out a very large printer install… even convert to an EXE and push out a printer change to hundreds of systems with System Management Server.. this is a great way to do so!
‘Start Script
Dim net
Set net = CreateObject(“WScript.Network”)
net.AddWindowsPrinterConnection “\\Server\PrintShare0“
net.AddWindowsPrinterConnection “\\Server\PrintShare1”
net.AddWindowsPrinterConnection “\\Server\PrintShare2”
net.AddWindowsPrinterConnection “\\Server\PrintShare3”
net.AddWindowsPrinterConnection “\\Server\PrintShare4”
net.AddWindowsPrinterConnection “\\Server\PrintShare5”
net.SetDefaultPrinter “\\Server\PrintShare3“
‘End Script
As always, you must use the visual basic script extention.
Copy the above, paste into a notepad, and save the file as whateveryouwant.vbs
