    Printer Settings

    Is there a way of changing the port settings of a printer programatically?

    i.e a printer is set up with its port being an ip address. I need to be able to change that ip address.

    I'm using VB or VBA.

    Thanks,
    Adam

    Assuming the logged on user has sufficient priveleges, SetPrinter API call with the level 2 data structure PRINTER_INFO_2 can change this (and other settings)
