Heres a script for creating printer ports

Right I got it working. I had to put a printer port in aswell. I'll
now look at a script to create printer ports. My goal is being able to
query the printers on print server x and then recreate the printers
(shares and ports) on print server y.
Thanks, for all your help Tim, much appreciated. M

Create isn't a method of Win32_Printer so I couldn't get that to work.
.Create is a method of Win32_Process which (wait for it..) creates a
new process. Unfortunatly there is no method to add a printer. the
method .AddPrinterConnection will allow me to add a connection to an
existing print share
