Automate TCP/IP Standard printing ports

[nfg]

I’m trying to find a way of deploying IP printers out to the desktops without having to physically configure them one-by-one. I’ve found a way to add a printer and it’s drivers by using a script file but in order for it to work, the TCP/IP Standard ports have to pre-exist. Does anyone know how I can push a series of ports out? We do use Novell’s IPP printing and it works well but I am trying to find an alternate solution to locations that do not have servers and need to deploy standard IP printing.
Thanks,

you could try the application 'Printmig'...not sure it's exactly what you're after but it may work
