You can only get a list of apparatus that are "known" by the local installation. Some TCP/IP thingy will not be recognized, until the drivers are installed.

Ok lets assume that i am getting five printers as follows
1. ABC
2. XYZ
3. TestPrinter1
4. TestPrinter2
5. TestPrinter3
In the above list some of them are network printers and how do i find newtwork printers programatically in VBA?
