Is there a .NET way to enumerate all available network printers?

Question

Is there a straightforward way to enumerate all visible network printers in .NET? Currently, I\'m showing the PrintDialog to allow the user to select a printer. The problem

Answer 1

found this code here

 private void btnGetPrinters_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
// Use the ObjectQuery to get the list of configured printers
            System.Management.ObjectQuery oquery =
                new System.Management.ObjectQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_Printer");

            System.Management.ManagementObjectSearcher mosearcher =
                new System.Management.ManagementObjectSearcher(oquery);

            System.Management.ManagementObjectCollection moc = mosearcher.Get();

            foreach (ManagementObject mo in moc)
            {
                System.Management.PropertyDataCollection pdc = mo.Properties;
                foreach (System.Management.PropertyData pd in pdc)
                {
                    if ((bool)mo["Network"])
                    {
                        cmbPrinters.Items.Add(mo[pd.Name]);
                    }
                }
            }

        }

Update:

"This API function can enumerate all network resources, including servers, workstations, printers, shares, remote directories etc."
