I would test your parameters on a target machine in a admin CMD box prior to integrating into a msi. LPWSTR pwzAddPrinterCommand = L"\"%lsRunDll32.exe\" PrintUI.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b \"%ls\" /f \"%ls\" /r %ls /m \"%ls\" /u /q /z /Gw"; LPWSTR pwzDelPrinterCommand = L"\"%lsRunDll32.exe\" PrintUI.dll,PrintUIEntry /dl /n \"%ls\" /q /Gw"; LPWSTR pwzDelDriverCommand = L"\"%lsRunDll32.exe\" PrintUI.dll,PrintUIEntry /dd /m \"%ls\" /q /Gw"; Snippet of deferred CA code that uses the above commands. While this is working the driver is not in the driver store and I have yet to work on a DifxApi solution. There is other refactoring that I am in the process of doing to extension project. switch (iOperation) { case WCA_TODO_INSTALL: case WCA_TODO_REINSTALL: fDoQuietExec = true; hr = RegOpen(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, pwzPrinterKey, KEY_QUERY_VALUE, &hkPrinter); if (ERROR_SUCCESS == hr) { /*If the printer exsts, skip calling the 'install' command on PrintUI api to avoid creating another printer*/ WcaLog(LOGMSG_VERBOSE, "Printer exists, so skip calling install action.\nPrinter Key: %ls\n", pwzPrinterKey); fDoQuietExec = false; break; } if (true == fDoQuietExec) { hr = StrAllocFormatted(&pwzCommand, pwzAddPrinterCommand, pwzSystemPath, pwzModel, pwzInfPath, pwzPort, pwzName); ExitOnFailure(hr, "failed to format the command to install a printer"); hr = QuietExec(pwzCommand, dwTimeout); ExitOnFailure1(hr, "QuietExec failed to execute install command, %ls, and may have timed out.", pwzCommand); } break; case WCA_TODO_UNINSTALL: //uninstalling so look for printers with names which include our printer name.
