Aha, you are trying to find the path to the referenced file? In that case,
Maya maintains each reference in a node of type “reference”. You can then
query various properties of this node, including the full path to the file
it references.
for reference in cmds.ls(type="reference"):
fname = cmds.referenceQuery(reference, filename=True)
print(fname)
