Below is a tried & true vbscript that has server me well.

Similar scripts are floating around.  My version doesn't apply any print spool settings; look around the net for that piece if needed.

My typical usage is to run/script execution from a network share.

See the script comments regarding where to place your printer drivers (you can either download or pull from your printers' installation media).

Script is provided as-is, and you must provide your own printer drivers, disclaimer this, not responsible for any damages that, etc. etc.

 

Option Explicit 'VBScript "MapPrinter_{your printer name/loc here}.vbs''Purpose:'   Install and Map printer as spec'd in code, including installation'   of printer drivers from a local directory.  This version does not'   contain all the code for enabling print spooling (look around the'   internet for that if you need it...''Dependencies - Files/Objects'   > Printer driver(s) for the printer to be installed, both x64/x86'     as needed.  The drivers must be signed.'     Current version of this script expects the drivers to be in a'     "Printer_Drivers" subfolder in the same directory as this script:  '           \Printer_Drivers\Lanier LD140\x64'           \Printer_Drivers\Lanier LD140\x86''Dependencies - User permissions'   If executed in the context of local user, they may require'   either Admin rights or software installation privileges;'   have not tested this to date (I always use in context of domain admin)''Ver. 20??

Comments:
  • Well, all my line breaks disappeared; Not sure if that's normal when using the code tags or not. If anyone wants, I'll post a version w/ {LineBreak} where all the CrLf's are and Notepad++ or similar can be used to replace them with actual linebreaks... - chager 9 years ago
