'Printer status using powershell
Do you know of a way to check printer status using powershell. I tried get-printer command but it does not show me the status of my printers connected on a network. I need to see when my printers fail and then have some script send me an email that "x" printer failed. Any Ideas? (also I am using v1)
Solution 1:[1]
The default output of Get-Printer does not show the status, but you can try this:
Get-Printer | Select Name, PrinterStatus
Solution 2:[2]
You can just add this
Get-Printer | Select Name, PrinterStatus | WHERE PrinterStatus -eq Normal
