[Roger Upole] | | You can probably do it through WMI. (class is Win32_Printer) | WMI works well with win32com, and there's also a wrapper module | | http://tgolden.sc.sabren.com/python/wmi.html | | for simplified access. | I imagine getting all the device parameters and port | configuration right will be messy, though. |
And here's a handy link (warning: long URL): http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wmisdk/wmi/ wmi_tasks__printers_and_printing.asp (I got that by googling for Win32_Printer and then for AddPrinterConnection). But... you'd better be using XP or 2K3 because, almost comically, each of the examples is prefixed by a "<method to be used> does not work on Windows 2000, Windows NT, Windows 98, Windows 95".
