Printer Install

[Jm]

Hi all

Is there an easy way to install a network printer by code in Vb.Net (Meaning
connecting to a printer from a server for eg \\MyServer\MyPrinter, so no
drivers are required or anything like that). In vb6 i used Wsh to install
it, should i continue using the same method or does .NET have a better way
of doing it ?

Thanks
