Add a network printer to the Control Panel - Printers folder, and/or Disconnect a printer.
Note that the NET USE command can map a network printer to an LPT port (for DOS type applications that print to a port.) but this would not add the printer to Control Panel - Printers.
All commands issued using this utility will affect only the user currently logged in. Con2prt is therefore ideal for managing NETWORK printer connections when used in a login script.
CON2PRT /F
CON2PRT /C \\PrintServer\PrintShare
CON2PRT /CD \\PrintServer\PrintShare
NET VIEW - to view a list of printers
Equivalent Linux BASH commands:
lpc - Line printer control program
lpr - Off line print
lprint - Print a file
lprintd - Abort a print job
lprintq - List the print queue
lprm - Remove jobs from the print queue
Several switches can be combined in one command-line. So you can remove all connections before adding new ones all in one command, you can only specify one default printer.
