This is how to install network printers using local drivers: (Example for a HP LaserJet 8150 Series PS)
start /wait rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "MYPRINTER" /f "%windir%\inf\ntprint.inf" /r "\\printmsa1\dds24" /m "HP LaserJet 8150 Series PS"
To install a printer using customized settings, proceed as following:
- install your printer locally
- customize the printer settings (for example you may want to duplex unit to be installed, or set up a different page size...)
- save settings in a .dat file:
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /Ss /n "PRINTERNAME" /a "z:\packages\printers\settings.dat"
- to apply the same settings to another printer (from an unattended installation script):
start /wait rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /Sr /n "PRINTERNAME" /a "z:\packages\printers\settings.dat" d f
