hi ravi,

  • in devices , printers, printers installed locally labelled name only, installed through server connection labelled "printername on servername".
  • if upgrade driver on print server clients pull down updated driver server.  this happens next time perform print task.
  • to list print queues installed on client system remotely use powershell command below.

if printers installed locally on client servername field blank.  if printer installed through server connection servername field reflect name of print server.  this 1 line command fashioned script read in list of client names, cycle through list , output results each.  alternatively, i'm sure there scripts can download this.

get-wmiobject win32_printer -computername pcnamehere | select name, servername
