Why do people always assume Print Driver means "PRINTER"
Just a little note for those who care. If you use scripted installs and
want a ton (I mean in the hundreds of) drivers out on your server you
may want this script.=20
The MF XP print driver replication queue has a max of 1500 drivers at
any one time.
I currently need 850 drivers on the MF servers.
SO I build two servers at once and will max out the queue. 2x850=3D1700.
Not good in a 200 server environment.
Anyway the script I am working on is to push JUST the drivers to the
servers at the end of the scripted install.
Printers (logical windows printers) will be handled via auto creation or
network assignment.=20

Anyone using a VBS (or any other type of script) for adding a large
number of print drivers to their servers during a scripted install? If
so can I take a peek at it?
