This command adds a printer with name mxdw2 to the local computer.
The mxdw printer uses the Microsoft XPS Document Writer v4 driver and the portprompt: port.
The portprompt: port prompts for a file name to save the XPS document when printing to the XPS printer.
This command adds a printer by specifying the name of a print server and a shared printer on that server.
