Print from Powershell

#powershell #printing #tutorial

Run this in Powershell - substituting the <NAMEOFPRINTER> with the name of a printer installed on your machine (or remove it entirely to use default printer):

'Hello World' | Out-Printer '<NAMEOFPRINTER>'

To print a specific file, it's:

Get-Content 'C:\MyNote.txt' | Out-Printer '<NAMEOFPRINTER>'

Can also be used within PSEXEC to send prints from remote computers - obviously you'll need to specify the name of a printer which is actually installed on that computer.
