Remove printer by command line (script) on several machines

Asked by peshih7 in Printers & Scanners, Windows Batch Scripting, VB Script

Hi,

We are about to phase out a few of our network printers and replace them with new ones.  Currently we can deploy all the new printers to users without problems but the old printers still remain in their printer lists.

How can I make a script to remove ONLY these certain printers from each users PC?

Printer names:
HPPrinter1
HPCopier2

OS:
XP
