On Windows 7 / 8[.1], you can configure printer and port information via the command line as the administrator, for example:
will list the printers attached to
computer-01 , using my logged-in credentials. This produces many lines of output, including the printer port. My goal is to find the Printer Port, assuming it's a TCP/IP port, then run the prnport command to disable SNMP Status on that port. Below is a sample output of two different printers, on being USB, the other being a TCP/IP printer:
(Note: this is not an X-Y problem, the issue is known to the manufacturer and disabling SNMP is the known solution.)
How can I find the Port Name that happens to be a TCP/IP port, and put it to a variable that I can run against the
prnport command?
Windows event log management. Download EventLog Analyzer for Free! The download file is the same for both the Free and Premium Editions. When you install the product, the Premium Edition is installed and will work for 30 days. After 30 days, it will automatically convert to the Free Edition unless you purchase a license for the Premium Edition. Most of the log analysis tools approach log data from a forensics point of view. But, Log and Event management uses log data more proactively. It can learn from past events and alert you on real-time before a problem causes more damage. Troubleshooting can be simpler by using the pre-defined filters organized by categories.

One problem you'll have is that the port name is free text: it can be just about anything; it is not guaranteed to be the IP address. Unless you're sure that the people setting up the printers explicitly set the names to start with
IP_ , that is not guaranteed.
I would recommend using PowerShell if you are able; the
Get-PrinterPort and Set-PrinterProperty or maybe Set-PrintConfiguration cmdlets (Win10 docs, Win8 docs, Win8.1 docs) look very useful. Unfortunately, they're only available on Windows 8 or Server 2012 and newer. I only have access to Windows 7 at the moment and am unable to test them.
Failing that, you can use
prnport directly rather than going through prnmngr first. prnport -l will 'list all TCP ports'. If you use this in conjunction with a script similar to David's, you'll end up with the correct results:
NB: You may need to substitute
prnport invocations with cscript %windir%System32Printing_Admin_Scriptsen-USprnport.vbs depending on your setup. Also, the region en-US can change.
Brief explanation:
![]()
You'll probably want to pass the computer name in as another variable.
![]()
Also note that this does not handle cases where no TCP/IP printers exist. I assume they'll just do nothing since the loop body should never execute.

Another option is to use WMI directly, which is what the printer management scripts do under the hood.
