Looking at the underlying Win32 API method EnumPrinters, you could try passing in the string `'Print Provider!!\\Machine'` [download] to search the machine `\\Machine` for printers. In your case, that could be: `my @printer = Printers("Print Provider!!\\\\$server");` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Try '//sfile'? Also check your event viewer logs for hints	[reply]
