What I need to do is find the appropriate key in the Registry, now I know it is in the CurrentControlSet\Printers key in Win98, but I seem to be having a spot of bother finding this in XP, as the printer does not seem to exist under this key.

I need to traverse down the Printers key, finding a printer attached to a specific port, eg. \\MPEX01\sup_laser and need to change this to a new mapping.

The main idea is to re-map 200+ pc's printer port settings via a single program instead of hvaing to manually go to each machine and change the settings.

Any help ?

Thanks
Simon.
