VBS script to map network printers to all users.
We have windows 2012 DC and Windows 7 clients in our network.I have installed a black and white and colour printer on a new windows 2012 print server. I am trying to work out how to use login scripts to map printers for users upon log on.
I found this script and i applied and now when users log in to any network PCs, the printers are mapped successfully.
I wondering, if a User-A logs and the printer gets mapped and once the User-A logs off and another User-B logs into the same PC will the printers be mapped again or if it detects the printer is already mapped will the script ignore mapping the printers again.
Please suggest and add any lines if required in the following script.
Option Explicit
Dim netPrinter, UNCpath
UNCpath = "\\PRINT-SERVER\Black and White Printer"
Set netPrinter = CreateObject("WScript.Netw
netPrinter.AddWindowsPrint
' Here is where we set the default printer
netPrinter.SetDefaultPrint
UNCpath = "\\PRINT-SERVER\Colour printer"
netPrinter.AddWindowsPrint
Wscript.Quit
Thanks any help would be great.
A scripting language is a programming language that supports scripts, programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator. Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Primitives are usually the elementary tasks or API calls, and the language allows them to be combined into more complex programs. Environments that can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous games. A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension language.
