No, it doesn't work, probably due to bash subshell or something,
as separating the final assignment from the command line *does*
work:
$ [ -e "${p}" ] && read -r PRINTER < "${p}" && PRINTER=${PRINTER%%,*}
$ echo $PRINTER
\\tmsdc2\TMSEngineering,winspool,Ne02:
$ PRINTER=${PRINTER%%,*}
$ echo $PRINTER
\\tmsdc2\TMSEngineering
