Check if the option "print directly to printer" is enabled
Check if the option "print directly to printer" is enabled
I would like to have a script that reads computer names from a file and check if the default printer has the option "Print directly to printer" enabled.
the script below will enable the option "print directly to printer" . if t can be modified to send query to see if the option has been enabled that would be great.
Thank you

oBDA,
that script works fine it is retrieving all the printers on each computer . if you can query just the default printer on each computer.

Can't be done, sorry. The default printer is a user specific setting, so the "computer" doesn't have a default printer.
You can only query by printer name like above.
