Command Line to change Default Printer

[b4u]

Hi,

I'm looking for some command to select a default printer. I'm currently using netsh command to change "IP profiles" on my laptop, since I have multiple clients, each with it's network settings, and I need to change settings accordingly. I use simple *.bat script files for that.

1) Now I need some command to add to the scripts, that will automatically change my default printer.

2) Also I would like to know if there is any command that can change proxy settings on IE and FireFox (probably not the same command that will change on both browsers, but I can live with one command for each one 😀)

Is there any?


Thanks

2) Yes, via Group Policy it is quite easy. You can also look at the policy's ADM file (in C:\Windows\inf) to see what registry entry it is manipulating.
