Thank You very much. This is most helpful I tried pushing out the printers from the MacOS server we have setup for profile management and Apple Remote Desktop but since the drivers for the printers I needed to use were not part of MacOS it was installing them as generic. I used this to copy multiple driver files and install a total of 3 printers in one script for an art lab.
The question I have is there a command line I can run to set a certain printer as default I am thinking I can run this command at the end of the script to set the printer I want as default. /usr/sbin/lpadmin -d printer.
