I'm still trying to inventory network printers on computers. The script below is a combination of the two scripts mentioned here: https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/SCCM-2012-NETWORK-PRINTER-776b59b4
I deploy it as a package that runs only when a user is logged on. It runs,
but only does the first part of the script. It creates a new registry entry
under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node called SCCMINVENTORY, and another under that
called NETWORKPRINTERS. But the printers do not enumerate. If I run the
script locally, they do. Any ideas why?
#Configure Registry
if (!(Test-Path HKLM:\SOFTWARE\SCCMINVENTORY)) {new-item
HKLM:\SOFTWARE\SCCMINVENTORY -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue}
$perm = get-acl HKLM:\SOFTWARE\SCCMINVENTORY -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
$rule = New-Object
System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryAccessRule("Authenticated
Users","FullControl", "ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit", "InheritOnly",
"Allow") -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
$perm.SetAccessRule($rule)
Set-Acl -Path HKLM:\SOFTWARE\SCCMINVENTORY $perm -ErrorAction
SilentlyContinue
if (!(Test-Path HKLM:\SOFTWARE\SCCMINVENTORY\NETWORKPRINTERS)) {new-item
HKLM:\SOFTWARE\SCCMINVENTORY\NETWORKPRINTERS -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue}
#Enumerate Printers
$printers = Get-WMIObject -class Win32_Printer -ErrorAction
SilentlyContinue|select-Object -Property
ServerName,ShareName,Location,DriverName,PrintProcessor,PortName,Local
|Where-Object {$_.Local -ne $true}-ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
ForEach($printer in $printers){
$PServerName= $printer.ServerName -replace ('\\','')
$PShareName = $printer.ShareName
$PLocation = $printer.Location
$PDriverName = $printer.DriverName
$PPrintProcessor = $printer.PrintProcessor
$PPortName = $printer.PortName
if ((Test-Path HKLM:\SOFTWARE\SCCMINVENTORY\NETWORKPRINTERS)) {
if ((Test-Path
"HKLM:\SOFTWARE\SCCMINVENTORY\NETWORKPRINTERS\$PShareName on $PServerName"))
{
