Remapping thin client print Server

[kweh4]

I am new to scripting and figure that one of you guru might have already accomplish what I am trying to get done. We have migrated all our printers from the old print server to the new one. I want to write a script that will delete thin client printers from the old print server and remapped it to the new. I will like to accomplish this through procedure call if possible.

1st procedure check and verify that this is a thin client connection or quit the script.
2nd procedure delete all printers from the old print server if there are any.
3rd procedure remapped the printers to the new printer server if there are any that need to be remapped.
I guess the 2nd and 3rd procedure could be combined into one. We do have 4 TS servers (I am not sure if this is that important). Finally, I want to created a file on another server that gives progress or status for each remapping. Again this is going to be applid through group policy so we need to exit the script for regular user logon and run it for TS logon.

First off I would suggest you take a look at this FAQ for information on how to do the printer deletions and adding via vbscript. faq329-5798

Second I would suggest that since you ONLY want this to happen on the terminal servers and presume that the same users could be logging in directly to the network OR to TS then you should implement a TS Login Script.


I hope you find this post helpful.
