Thank you for the tip.

APRINTERS() returns the share name of the printer off the network and not the name that is on desktop. The printer could be installed as "\sharename\printer model 1100" on its host on the network, but on the workstation it could be renamed as "Packing Slip" after mapping it on the desktop.

I am looking to extract the name of the printer ("Packing Slip") as it appears in the Printers under Control Panel.
