How to add network printer using printui.dll remotely?

[SimonW]

I'm attempting to script the installation of network printers remotely for
Windows XP and have succeeded in remotely installing printer for local
printer ports.

However I can not get the same commands to work for attaching network
printers.

I have followed the instrcutions in the help file "rundll32
printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /?"

But there are no examples for "rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /in" which
is supposed to be the command to "add network printer connection" but I'm
not bright enough to figure it out without an example.

Any help would be appreciated.

cheers
