VBS printer script

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Hello,

Will the following script run via "Startup" script rather then a "logon"
script?

Set WshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")

WshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\server\printer1"
WshNetwork.SetDefaultPrinter "\\server\printer1"

I have had succes with the logn script, but have not had succes with the
startup script. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Vince
