Hello, I am trying to deploy a printer through sccm. It is my first time doing this, so I copied a working script from another printer deployment. Mine does not seem to work though. Here is the log:

    What does the script look like? Did you test your script using the local system account? https://www.recastsoftware.com/resources/how-to-access-the-local-system-account/

    Hi @ChristopherWhalen-6797,

    Agree with Garth, we could use Local System Account to test if the script works. If it is not works, there are something wrong with script or deployment, we could refer to the following article to deploy printer:

    Note: Non-Microsoft link, just for the reference.

    Besides, to troubleshoot the failure, we could use these trace log to check if there is any errors:
