Find Network printer name

[FrankGC]

HI,

I want to create a Printer Queue shortcut to have the ability to quickely cancel a print job

To do this I need the printer network name such as :

C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /o /n HP6CC21747B66E

THe above is incorrect. How do I find the correct network name

Thanks

I found Brink's tutorial on creating a printer Queue shortcut:
Print Queue Shortcut - Create in Windows 7 and Windows 8

In my case the printer name is "HP Officejet Pro 251dw Printer PCL 6 (network)"
It needs to be in quotes because of embedded blanks.

I did the create shortcut using the following in the target location :
%WinDir%\System32\rundll32.exe printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /o /n "HP Officejet Pro 251dw Printer PCL 6 (network)"

I ran a test with no paper in the printer so it couldn't print.
I executed the shortcut, the print job was in the queue. I canceled it
And it worked!
