I have gone through many blogs for finding solution for this issue, but never find a solution.
$CompName = "test.domain.com"
$Printer = "\\122.21.10.11\PRINTER-NAME-1"
Invoke-Command -ComputerName $CompName -Scriptblock {
Param($p)
(New-Object -Com Wscript.Network).AddWindowsPrinterConnection($p)
} -ArgumentList $Printer
I have even tried PSRemoting
and tried to execute the ps1
file from remote machine. the same script is working in local and not working remote.
Enter-PSSession -ComputerName "testserver.testdomain.com" -Authentication Credssp -Credential Get-Credential
Error:
Exception calling "AddWindowsPrinterConnection" with "1" argument(s): "The printer name is invalid. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070709)"
Updates:
Working without CredSSP:
Invoke-Command -ComputerName remotemac.mydomain.com -ScriptBlock {
Get-ChildItem C:\Users\myusername\Desktop
}
Working with CredSSP:
Invoke-Command -ComputerName remotemac.mydomain.com -ScriptBlock {
Get-ChildItem \\sharedmac\sharef
} -Authentication Credssp -Credential mydomain\myusername
Script is working, but not showing network printers:
Invoke-Command -ComputerName remotemac.mydomain.com -ScriptBlock {
(New-Object -ComObject WScript.Network).EnumPrinterConnections()
} -Authentication Credssp -Credential mydomain\myusername
Script gives error: Invalid Printer name
$Printer = "\\172.26.30.13\SDB1-FLOOR1-B2" # I have tried this input in single, double, with and without escape character
Invoke-Command -ComputerName remotemac.mydomain.com -ScriptBlock {
Param($p)
(New-Object -Com WScript.Network).AddWindowsPrinterConnection("$p")
} -ArgumentList $Printer -Authentication Credssp -Credential mydomain\myusername
I'm totally stuck.
I heard we can use Group Policy, is there anyway we can automate this using group policy?
