Anyone remember how to make one of these? We use active directory in our enviroment, and I want a patch file that I can use with Win XP to put in the all users startup folder, that way no matter who log on they have access to the printer.

'VBScript to add printers

Set WSHNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
WSHNetwork.AddWindowsPrin terConnection "\\Lisa\HP5", "HP Laserjet 4si"
WSHNetwork.AddWindowsPrin terConnection "\\Lisa\HP5", "HP Laserjet 4si"
WSHNetwork.AddWindowsPrin terConnection "\\Lisa\HP5", "HP Laserjet 4si"

obviously you don't need 3 lines to add 1 printer...I just grabbed the top lines from my add printer template script :)
