<#
Script to get printer names based on a CSV list of printer IPs.

# Input:
$CSV = 'x:\sandbox\MyPrinters.csv'
# Processing:
$Printers = Import-Csv $CSV
$UpdatedPrinters = $Printers | where { $_.Name -eq $null } | Select IP , @{
Name = 'Name'
Expression = { $IP = $_.IP; (Get-Printer | where { $_.PortName -eq "IP_$IP" }).Name }
# Output:
$UpdatedPrinters | FT -Auto
$UpdatedPrinters | Out-GridView
$UpdatedPrinters | Export-Csv $CSV -NoType
Start with a CSV file that looks like:
IP
192.168.0.10
192.168.0.111
192.168.0.12
192.168.0.13
End up with updated CSV file like:
Note that you're picking up the Printer name from the Windows computer where you run this script. If the computer does not have all the printers in the CSV list, you need to run the script on several computers to get the full list populated. The script is
designed to allow that. If the printer has different names on different computer, the script will retain the first match.
You could actually add it to a logon script in a domain environment (without the out-gridview part of course), to collect all printer names - CSV path can be UNC path. Keep it for a day or so and then remove it.
Or you could run it against several computers - one at a time - using PS remoting..
