I do not believe printer installs will work in SYSTEM mode as the printer information has to be stored in the user profile, to which the SYSTEM account has no access.

"I tried this and getting "printer connection cannot be removed. double click the printer name and make sure that the printer is connected to the network."
It sounds like the script is now running and is throwing the error, can you post the script.

It looks like there is a problem with your replacement variables. As you can see in the first log, it has replaced $(KACE_DEPENDENCY_DIR) with the correct path, but $(KACE_SYS_DIR) was not replaced. In the second log, it didn't replace either one. Try putting them in all caps, as indicated in the documenation. Also, you may want to make sure the PCs these are running on are on the latest Agent for the version of KBOX you're on. Additionally, you may also want to enclose the path to the script in quotes, in case the $(KACE_DEPENDENCY_DIR) is a folder w/ spaces or long filenames.

try using the following with wscript vs cscript, make sure to include the " " in the file name.
Launch a program...
directory: $(KACE_DEPENDENCY_DIR)
file: "c:\windows\system32\wscript.exe"
parameters : printer_install_remove.vbs - SMal.tmcc 9 years ago

could you show where
Dir: C:\windows\system32
File"wscript
Paramete: $(kace_dep_Dir)\printer_install

1) I see the VBS file is in the kbot folder
2) The VBS file will run if copy to desktop and open. But not through kace..
3) tried it as administrator and local user account kace account and still nothing. - Kdebiasse 9 years ago
