Guest Komandur Kannan Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 We have configured a new Printer Server with 20+ Network Printers.We have more than 200 users divided as groups in Domain controller.In order to avoid going on every client machine and install printer,I tried to install printer remotely from the server with Printui.dll according to microsoft article ,but it fails and showing errors . Is there any other way to install printer remotely on client machine from the server? Can we install Printer Remotely on client machine through SMS Server?
Guest Ken Zhao [MSFT] Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 RE: Printer Installation Hello Kannan, Thank you for using newsgroup! Based on my knowledge, we can package the printer setup software/driver and create a .msi or .exe file. And then you may distribute the .msi or .exe file using SMS. However, generally, we recommend our customers use script including the Printer User Interface (PrintUIEntry) command.
