I am looking to load test a server with multiple print queues.

Is there a tool or script which can generate many owners and print jobs to multiple print queues?

Any advice appreciated

    You don't print to a queue, you (in your script) will print to a printer. In order to do so as another user you'll have to start another PowerShell session using that other user's credentials.

    Here's a link to an example using the other user's default printer: powershell-print-to-another-users-default-printer
