Login script for printing preferences

I need to over-ride Printing Preferences at the point of login to change a
default label size on a Zebra TLP-2844 Thermal Printer.

Is this information stored in the registry and is it possible to do this
please?

Thank you, Mark

I'm sure that this information is stored in the registry. What I've done in
the past to locate such information is, export the entire registry. Then
make the appropriate changes to the print driver and export the registry
again. Then use a program such as Microsoft's WinDiff to compare the two
exported files. You should be able to quickly locate where the changes were
made.

Next you can create custom *.REG files that set the corresponding registry
value(s). Finally you can use the "regedit /s" command to import the *.REG
file via the login script.

I usually save these files in the NETLOGON share since everyone have read
access to it.

regedit /s "\\server_name\netlogon\Zebra_Label.reg"
