I would like to build a web interface on a company network that will allow my users to print documents stored on my image server.

I have a VB backend that reads the database and does the printing, however its to a limited list of printers.

I would love to allow the users to enter an IP address of a printer in their web browser, and a pulldown of a select # of print drivers, and my VB app reads this and programaticly installs the print queue via an IP Port, sends the job, waits for it to finish, and finaly deletes the queue and port when the job is done.

Does anyone have any idea how to programaticly install a print queue for windows xp? (or 2003 server)

Thanks in advance.
