NetPrinterInstall
Printers can be installed manually or deployed automatically in Active directory environments. This scripts sits in the middle: the installation is manual, but very fast and easy to repeat.
NOTE: This script is tested on Windows 10 and Windows 11.
Why
I was tired to install printers manually in little environments with no Active Directory.
