These functions should get you started and probably finished...
def createprinterport(IPAddress,ServerName):
WBEM =
win32com.client.GetObject(r"winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\"
+ ServerName + r"\root\cimv2")
WBEM.Security_.Privileges.AddAsString("SeLoadDriverPrivilege")
printerport = WBEM.Get("Win32_TCPIPPrinterPort").SpawnInstance_()
printerport.Properties_('Name').Value = 'IP_'+IPAddress
printerport.Properties_('Protocol').Value = 1
printerport.Properties_('HostAddress').Value = IPAddress
printerport.Properties_('PortNumber').Value = '9100'
printerport.Properties_('SNMPEnabled').Value = 'False'
printerport.Put_()

createprinter(PrinterName,DriverName,Location,ShareName,IPAddress,ServerName):
WBEM =
win32com.client.GetObject(r"winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\"
+ ServerName + r"\root\cimv2")
WBEM.Security_.ImpersonationLevel = 3
WBEM.Security_.Privileges.AddAsString("SeLoadDriverPrivilege")
printer = WBEM.Get("Win32_Printer").SpawnInstance_()
printer.Properties_('DeviceID').Value = PrinterName
printer.Properties_('DriverName').Value = DriverName

printer.Put_()
I also created one for migrating print drivers but had loads of
problems with it. If the driver doesn't pass Microsoft logo testing
the scripts fail even if it is signed by Microsoft. I never worked out
why there were 2 levels of protection.
