Refreshing all Network Printers in the Printer Folders

Hi all,
We share our AS400 printers using Client Access Operations Navigator so that our win2000 Server can access it to print stuff. The printers are added as normal network printers to the win2000 server.

They are working fine. Except for some times the printers loose temporary connection to the AS400 server, and come up with status "Printer not found on server, unable to connect".

We solve this my manually refreshing the Printers Folders until the status gets back to "Ready"

Since I am new in VBscript, I am not sure whether VBScript will be able to do that. i.e "Refreshing" the printer folder until printers are back to "Ready Status".

I would appreciate if someone provides an hint or example.

Thanks for your response.
