Hello Newsgroup,

I want to use a VBScript to add some printer connections: (Printers are
shared on a Windows 2003 PDC)

When I try to run the script on the server, I always get this error message:
"The filename, directory name or volume syntax is incorrect" (Error Code:
8007007b).

But the UNC Path is correct, if I use some other path I get an error that
the printer name is not correct...

An Example Script:
Set objNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
objNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\10.152.108.1\Farblaser Epson
C2000"

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Matthias

I am getting a similar error but the code is 8007007E. I need help with
this as well. Here is my script.

'
' Label Printers.vbs - Windows Logon Script.
Set objNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
objNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\recwarehouse\label_printer."

Thanks!

Just curious; Are you using the printer name as it appears on the server or
the network share name?

Network sharename.
