I have a script that assigns printers to the workstations... it seems to be working fine when connecting printers to windows xp workstations, but not with windows vista.

I've tried a few combination's but either have no connection or it asks to install printer driver at logon but the printer still doesn't appear.

Code:
' Read security group membership
adsDomainGroups.Filter = Array("Group")
For Each adsGroup in adsDomainGroups
 Group = UCase(adsgroup.name)

UserName = UCase(WshNetwork.UserName)
server = "\\server" 'Change to match the users server

 If group = UCASE("staff") Then CheckGroup adsgroup.name, Username, home, server & "\staff$\" & UserName, "staff"
 Next
' Maps network drives
    WshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "x:", server & "\shared"
    WshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "s:", server & "\software"
    WshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "y:", server & "\Childrens Shared"
[B]
' Adds classroom printers
        PrinterPath1 = server & "\ICT Suite"
        PrinterDriver1 = "Generic 35C-4 Series PS"
        Wshnetwork.addwindowsprinterconnection Printerpath1, Printerdriver1
        Wshnetwork.setdefaultprinter server & "\ICT Suite"[/B]
 
are the printer drivers compatible with Vista? Can you add the printers manually while logged in as the user?
