Shared printers lists on NT are broadcast every 10 minutes. If you have a lot of
print servers, you may want to extend the broadcast interval.
Hive: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Key: SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print
Name:
ServerThreadTimeout
Type: REG_DWORD

You could extend the interval to up to 1 hour (3600000).
