Listing inbox printer drivers


If you want to check whether a certain printer has an inbox driver for Windows Server 2003, you could try installing it. On the other hand, it would be nice to be able to determine ahead of time whether the driver for the printer is included in Windows or not. How can you do this? Simple. Open the C:\Windows\inf folder and then open the file NTPRINT.INF in Notepad and you’ll find a complete listing of inbox printer drivers.
