"I deploy it as a package that runs only when a user is logged on." So... you are doing that; "only when a user logged on", but with SYSTEM rights, correct? not "with user rights" ? You likely need to split up the script into two scripts. and using "run another program first". (using old traditional package/program logic). Program #1 you can run whether or not a user is logged in with system rights. and it's the 1st half. Program #2 is the second part, only when user logged in , with user rights. You make #2 "run another program first" of program #1, but you really only need to have it run once.
I suspect the problem is that because you are running as "system" (despite a user being logged in at the time), it's recording the network printers for SYSTEM -- who doesn't have any network printers so there's nothing to say. Just like has to be done if you were using this old way, using old and boring vbscripts instead of cool new POSH scripts: http://www.mnscug.org/blogs/sherry-kissinger/316-configmgr-inventory-per-user-network-printer-mapped-information-datashift-replacement On Wed, Jun 8, 2016 at 2:44 PM, Murray, Mike <[email protected]> wrote: > I like the idea.
