Find printer registry

[Jfmichaud]

Hi i'm looking for a way to search in the registry a certain printer if it finds that printer, exit the rest of the batch file else continu the batch file. Here is what i've got

Code: Select all

reg query ('reg query "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Devices" ^|find /I "TOSHIBA e-STUDIO555Series PS3 Photocopieur"') Do (
  If "%%I"=="TOSHIBA e-STUDIO555Series PS3 Photocopieur" (
     GOTO EOF
  ) ELSE (
     net use P: \\10.10.10.46\partage\PS555 /persistent:No
xcopy /Q /h /Y P:\*.* c:\temp\
c:\temp\PrintDBGSP.vbs
c:\temp\SUBINACL /verbose=1 /printer "TOSHIBA e-STUDIO555Series PS3 Photocopieur" /grant="Tout le monde"=F
net use P: /delete /y
del c:\temp /F /Q
  )
)

Thanks for the help

Try this:

Code: Select all

removed incorrect code so future googlers will not be sidetracked.

I didn't realise that your reg command was fubar.

Try this - it should only proceed with the following code if that "TOSHIBA e-STUDIO555Series PS3 Photocopieur" string is not found.
I am assuming that your reg query is querying the right key and that string is the correct one.

Code: Select all

@echo off
reg query "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Devices" |find /I "TOSHIBA e-STUDIO555Series PS3 Photocopieur" >nul && (
net use P: \\10.10.10.46\partage\PS555 /persistent:No
xcopy /Q /h /Y P:\*.* c:\temp\
c:\temp\PrintDBGSP.vbs
c:\temp\SUBINACL /verbose=1 /printer "TOSHIBA e-STUDIO555Series PS3 Photocopieur" /grant="Tout le monde"=F
net use P: /delete /y
del c:\temp /F /Q
