EnumPrinterConnections Method
Returns the current network printer mapping information.
objPrinters = object.EnumPrinterConnections
Arguments
object
WshNetwork object.objPrinters
Variable that holds the network printer mapping information.
Remarks
The EnumPrinterConnections method returns a collection. This collection is an array that associates pairs of items — network printer local names and their associated UNC names. Even-numbered items in the collection represent printer ports. Odd-numbered items represent the networked printer UNC names. The first item in the collection is at index zero (0).
Example
Description
The following example uses the EnumPrinterConnections method to generate a list of networked printers and displays this mapping information.
<package>
<job id="vbs">
<script language="VBScript">
Set WshNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
Set oDrives = WshNetwork.EnumNetworkDrives
Set oPrinters = WshNetwork.EnumPrinterConnections
WScript.Echo "Network drive mappings:"
For i = 0 to oDrives.Count - 1 Step 2
WScript.Echo "Drive " & oDrives.Item(i) & " = " & oDrives.Item(i+1)
Next
WScript.Echo
WScript.Echo "Network printer mappings:"
For i = 0 to oPrinters.Count - 1 Step 2
WScript.Echo "Port " & oPrinters.Item(i) & " = " & oPrinters.Item(i+1)
Next
</script>
</job>
<job id="js">
<script language="JScript">
var WshNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network");
var oDrives = WshNetwork.EnumNetworkDrives();
var oPrinters = WshNetwork.EnumPrinterConnections();
WScript.Echo("Network drive mappings:");
for(i = 0; i < oDrives.length; i += 2) {
WScript.Echo("Drive " + oDrives.Item(i) + " = " + oDrives.Item(i + 1));
}
WScript.Echo();
WScript.Echo("Network printer mappings:");
for(i = 0; i < oPrinters.length; i += 2) {
WScript.Echo("Port " + oPrinters.Item(i) + " = " + oPrinters.Item(i + 1));
}
