I am not a Windows programmer, but have managed to port some Linux codes to the
python/windows environment. To allow windows users to print, I used some code
that needed to know the name of the 'shares' providing printers (there were 2 of
them in the environment in which I work). The code looks in part like:
import win32print
default_printer = win32print.GetDefaultPrinter () # just the default
for j in range (len (self.share_names)): # <-------must know share names!
A = win32print.EnumPrinters (win32print.PRINTER_ENUM_NAME,\
self.share_names [j], 2)
for i in range (len (A)):
win_printer = A [i] ['pPrinterName']
self.printer_list.append (win_printer)
My question then is, "how does one determine the share names in an arbitrary
environment - without asking someone, and then coding them (as I've done
above?)"
I look forward to any and all replies.
Regards from Calgary,
Dean
