Hi,

 

We have tried deploying printer with GPO and its not going very well.

 

Some users can access all printers and some cant access any. Even if they use the same computer.

SO we are now going to try using a login script to see if that works at all.

 

Thanks to Nick67 im going to use his script of

 

cd \
c:
cd C:\Windows\System32\Printing_Admin_Scripts\en-US

Pause

Cscript Prnport.vbs -a -r IP_10.0.0.74 -h 10.0.0.74 -o raw -n 9100
Cscript Prnport.vbs -a -r IP_10.0.0.75 -h 10.0.0.75 -o raw -n 9100
Cscript Prnport.vbs -a -r IP_10.0.1.75 -h 10.0.1.75 -o raw -n 9100
Cscript Prnport.vbs -a -r IP_10.0.0.78 -h 10.0.0.78 -o raw -n 9100
Cscript Prnport.vbs -a -r IP_10.0.0.73 -h 10.0.0.73 -o raw -n 9100
Cscript Prnport.vbs -a -r IP_10.0.0.72 -h 10.0.0.72 -o raw -n 9100

Pause

cscript prnmngr.vbs -a -p "Ricoh Front" -m "Ricoh Aficio 3228C PCL6" -r "IP_10.0.0.74"
cscript prnmngr.vbs -a -p "Ricoh Back" -m "Ricoh Aficio 3228C PCL6" -r "IP_10.0.0.75"
cscript prnmngr.vbs -a -p "Ricoh Engineering" -m "Ricoh Aficio 3235C PCL6" -r "IP_10.0.1.75"
cscript prnmngr.vbs -a -p "HP Cait" -m "HP Color LaserJet CP2020 Series PCL6" -r "IP_10.0.0.78
cscript prnmngr.vbs -a -p "RonBrother" -m "Brother MFC-9840CDW" -r "IP_10.0.0.73"
cscript prnmngr.vbs -a -p "VVBrother" -m "Brother MFC-9840CDW" -r "IP_10.0.0.72"

 

He however forced the computer to update the driver lst from windows update. Our problem is that our printers arnt on windows update and therefore that system cannot be used. Is it possible o point this script to drivers located on a shared folder on the server?

 

Many thanks,

 

Dan
