I am using the Microsoft WMI code creator to connect to REMOTE machines in the domain and retrieve the list of printers on each. The WMI system connects to all printers and retrieves the list of printers on each remote machine BUT there is one machine which although the WMI system can connect to the remote machine BUT it does not retrieve the list of printers on that particular machine. This machine is windows server 2003 SP2.
All the machines the WMI system connects and pulls the list of printers have SP1 except the one I am querying about which has SP2.
Any suggestions please?

there is a program, you can try - I use them all the time - save yourself a major headache -

One is called "WMIX" and the other is called METALAN" - by hammer software.

Save your time, I love scripting , myself; I do it all the time, but there are time, you have to use a 3rd party, to get something done.
