Adding Printers during Logon on Win9x/ME Machines?
Yes, Though I am using standard Windows 9x/ME drivers..
"HP LaserJet 4"
I've installed them manually then deleted them.
Ran my script then I get the Error. I've checked my spelling and
parameters.
Everything is correct as far as "Microsoft" is concerned. But I get the
errors.
I know this is a problem with WSH and Scripting as I have seen this in the
past but never saw a solution.
If you already have the printer installed you will get "Printer Alread
Exists" error.
I read somewhere that there was a way to do this from the command line?
Anyone have any suggestions?
