Hi Jos,

WMI can be used to retrieve the printerconfiguration properties BUT you
cannot manipulate them using WMI as they are readonly.

However the code below lists only the standard props.

Go into the immediate pane in VBE and mine all 86 properties
of the Win32_Printer WMI object.

You'll need API programming to set them with code.
Certainly if it concerns some special manufacturers properties,
this aint going to be easy.

If you find the proper property's ID with the WMI script
let me know. Maybe I can help.
