Scripted printer configuration changes
- by David Steven
I've got about a dozen Windows XP machines that I need to make a couple specific printer configuration changes to. The printer is "virtual" printer for an electronic delivery service. I'd like to not have to visit each machine individually. I already have the means to execute commands remotely on the machines, I just can't seem to find away to adjust these settings via command line or script.
Specifically I need to be able to make the following changes:
1) As an admin user:
- Device Settings
- Font Substitution Table/Courier New
- Change to "Courier"
2) As a specific* user:
- Printer Preferences - Paper/Quality - Advanced
- Change Graphic/Print Quality to "600 x 600"
- Change Document Options/Printer Features/Graphics Mode to "HP-GL/2"
*This change is a per user configuration, unless there's some way to make it once. In this situation I only really need it for a specific (different) user on each machine.
