how can i create a local printer share?
i'd like to create a script or batch file that will create a sharename
for a local USB printer - without knowing the printer's name. i may
be using the same maike of label printer for each installation, but
may not.

tia,

You can use a VB Script to do either of the following:
- Create a printer share for each and every printer
that is installed on the PC, numbering your shares
one after the other; or
- Create a printer share for a specific printer whose name
you know.

Have a look here for the details:
