wisem2540 Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Here is an example script to return printers. Option Explicit Dim objWMIService, objPrinter, colItems, strComputer strComputer ="." Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\CIMV2") Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery ("SELECT * FROM Win32_Printer") ' On Error Resume Next For Each objPrinter In colItems Wscript.Echo "DeviceID: " & objPrinter.DeviceID Wscript.Echo "Caption: " & objPrinter.Caption Wscript.Echo "ServerName: " & objPrinter.ServerName Wscript.Echo "ShareName: " & objPrinter.ShareName Wscript.Echo "DriverName: " & objPrinter.DriverName Wscript.Echo "Default: " & objPrinter.Default Next WScript.Quit Can someone point me in the right direction to accomplish this in autoit? I cannot seem to locate anything relating to this in the help file.
