I'm wondering why, if I use in powershell the command Get-Printer I get all the printers installed on server, but if I use Get-Printer -name '008 - SRM [A06]', I get nothing.
But if I use the same command on 'Microsoft XPS Document Writer' all the details appear.
Therefore I suppose that this error is preventing me from updating massivily the printer drivers.

Hi,
You have to prepend the escape character to the square brackets.
Get-Printer -name '008 - SRM `[A06`]'

Sorry for the late reply, I've been off for some days.
It's working.
I can get all the information I need and update drivers as well.
