We currently, use a logon script to add printers it works fine, but users where complaining that the naming convention was confusing so we changed the name of the printers. the problem arises that now they have old (invalid) printers on their computer.

My goal is to have a script that pulls a list of shared printers from the print server and maps those to client machines at logon AND it removes any invalid shared printers on the client machine (those shared non-local printers no longer being served up by the print server).

********** QUESTION **************
HOW DO I REFERENCE AND MAPPED NETWORK PRINTER THAT IS NO LONGER VALID AS A PRINTER. E.G. THE PRINTER NAME HAS CHANGED OR THE PRINTER HAS BEEN REMOVED TOTALLY.

MY CODE: MANY THANKS IN ADVANCE
