Hi there,

I am tring to use PRNADMIN to create a printer and port on a print server. However I cannot seem to invoke the ADD method.

can any please piont out where i am going wrong?

Here is the code:

$MAS = New-Object -ComObject PrintMaster.PrintMaster.1

$POR = New-Object -ComObject Port.Port.1

$PTR = New-Object -ComObject Printer.Printer.1

$POR.ServerName = "MyPrintServer"

$POR.PortName = "MyPortName"

$POR.HostAddress = "MyAddress"

$POR.PortType = 2

$POR.QueueName = "Binary_P1"

$MAS.? #Need to invode add method her to create port

$PTR.ServerName = "MyPrintServer"

$PTR.PrinterName = "MyPortName"

$PTR.DriverName = "HP4 laserjet"

$PTR.PortName = "MyPortName"

$MAS.? #Need to invode add method her to create printer

$MAS.PrinterGet($strPrintServer, $printerName, $PTR)

$PTR.Comment = "Windows LPR Port"

$PTR.Location = "MyLocation"

$MAS.? #well you know what i mean

Did you try....

$MAS.PortAdd($POR)

this worked for me so if it is not working for you then something else may be wrong.
