Install printers based on logged on computer

[penyel]

I am currentlly trying to install printers for different sections of the office, and set the correct one as the default. However I need to define a method were I can get the a computer name and compare it against a list of names to define which printers will be installed.

So far I created a script which install a set of printers on a given machine if a folder exists under the C:\windows\system32 folder. I believe this is too labor intensive and hinders the whole purpose of scripting.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Here is what I have so far

IfFileExists>C:\Windows\System32\SectionA\SectionA.bat

To get the computer name just look at the COMPUTER_NAME variable:

E.g. this will show you the computer name:

MessageModal>COMPUTER_NAME

So you could have a list of names in a text file, or array, or database, or (I don't know - where is this list of names already?) and simply compare each one to COMPUTER_NAME. Add add the logic accordingly.
