You can use win32print.AddPrinterConnection(r'\\server\sharedprinter').
However, if the printer driver has to be copied to the client machine and
installed, that's probably where most of the time is spent.

Hi, I am trying to create a python script to install a set of network
printers. I have had success using an os.popen statement, using
rundll32 and printui.dll. This takes way too long. Can someone point
me in a quicker direction?

thanks,
Matt
